This SKF Y-bearing insert belongs to the YAR series, featuring an extended inner ring and set screws for secure shaft mounting in split or pillow block housings. The 2RF seal and HV treatment make it suitable for humid or washdown environments, while the design allows for straightforward installation and replacement in moderate-speed applications.
The YAR designation refers to a Y-bearing with an extended inner ring and two set screws that lock onto the shaft. The 2RF suffix denotes double contact seals on both sides, which keep lubricant in and contaminants out. HV indicates a surface treatment on the outer ring for enhanced corrosion protection. Models in this series include YAR 204-2RF/HV through YAR 207-104-2RF/HV, with bore sizes following the 200 series progression.
These inserts are commonly used in split, pillow block, or flanged housings and can be found in conveyors, belts, elevators, mixers, industrial washing machines, and other process equipment. They are particularly valued in food processing, meatpacking, tanneries, and other facilities where frequent washdowns or high humidity would quickly degrade standard bearings. The combination of 2RF sealing and HV treatment helps extend service life in such demanding conditions.
When selecting an insert, verify the shaft diameter and the housing type. The 2RF contact seal requires a smooth shaft surface to avoid damaging the lip. During installation, clean the shaft, press the bearing without impacting the outer ring, and tighten the set screws with a suitable wrench. Proper lubrication and housing alignment are critical to prevent parasitic loads and premature failure.
Y-bearings from various manufacturers are often interchangeable if key dimensions and fixation methods align. The SKF YAR series has equivalents in other brands, but before substituting, compare bore diameter, overall width, sealing arrangement, and shaft locking mechanism. Similar series numbers alone are not sufficient; suffixes can indicate performance features that may be absent in another brand.
To confirm the correct SKF variant or a suitable equivalent, send your part number via WhatsApp or email to MR Industrial Accessories. Our team can also assist with housing selection and mounting accessories if you provide details about the equipment.

Frequently asked questions
- What does the 2RF suffix indicate on a YAR bearing?
- 2RF means the bearing has double contact seals on both sides. These seals retain grease and block dust, water, or particles, making the bearing suitable for dirty or humid conditions.
- What is the purpose of the HV treatment?
- HV is a surface treatment applied to the outer ring to improve corrosion resistance. It is recommended for equipment that is frequently washed or exposed to moisture, where a standard bearing would rust more quickly.
- How can I determine if a Y-bearing from another brand can replace the YAR?
- Check bore diameter, overall width, sealing type, and shaft fixing method. If these match, it may be interchangeable. However, always verify with the original part number because suffixes vary between manufacturers.
