The SKF YAT VP series covers bearing inserts that combine a spherical outer ring with set screw locking on the inner ring. They seat in split plummer block or flanged housings, so a single insert can serve equipment where self-alignment and straightforward mounting matter, from belt conveyors to fans and agricultural machinery. MR Industrial Accessories LLC supplies this line and helps buyers match the code to the application.
Reading the code helps when you order a replacement. YAT marks the insert family that locks to the shaft with set screws; VP points to an execution variant, typically tied to the seal arrangement or to tolerances. In a reference such as YAT 206/VP076, the 206 is the size number and VP076 defines that particular configuration. The size number by itself does not confirm interchangeability, so pass on the full designation.
Typical duty covers food processing, agriculture, logistics and aggregate handling. These inserts appear in belt conveyors, bucket elevators, mixers, screens and packaging lines, including feed plants, meatpacking operations and grain storage, where dust and moisture make sealing and secure mounting important.
Selection starts with the shaft diameter and the locking method the housing accepts. The YAT VP series locks with set screws on the inner ring, so the shaft should have suitable hardness and tolerance. The VP seal works against contaminants, yet it is still worth checking internal clearance and relubricating with a compatible grease. Aligning the housing carefully avoids parasitic axial loads and supports service life.
Equivalents are possible, but Y inserts with screw locking from other brands only share main dimensions in many cases; sealing suffixes and tolerances differ. Do not swap a YAT VP for another insert on the size number alone. Compare bore diameter, overall width, locking type and sealing first. MR Industrial Accessories LLC can identify an equivalent when you send the dimensions or the original code.

Frequently asked questions
- What does the VP suffix indicate on a YAT bearing?
- VP denotes an execution variant, usually linked to the sealing type or special tolerances. Main dimensions stay the same, but contaminant performance can change. Keep the full suffix when replacing.
- How does a YAT insert mount in a housing?
- The insert goes into the housing, then the inner ring is locked to the shaft with the set screws. The shaft should be clean and free of burrs, and the wrench should be tightened to the recommended torque so the insert does not spin.
- Can a YAT VP be replaced by another brand?
- Yes, provided the critical dimensions match: bore diameter, overall width, locking type and sealing. Size numbers are often equivalent, but suffixes vary. Send the original code or dimensions to MR and the team will confirm the alternative.
