SKF bearing model FY 60 TF:

General Description

The SKF FY 60 TF ball bearing is a robust flanged Y-bearing unit designed for applications requiring high load capacity and flexible alignment. The gray cast iron housing with pre-lubricated housing significantly reduces friction and vibration, providing long life and high efficiency.

Technical Characteristics

• Hole Diameter : 60 mm
• External Diameter : 175 mm
• Total Height : 73.7 mm
• Weight : 3.98 kg
• Support Material : Cast Iron
• Y-bearing : Single row radial ball bearing, with convex outer diameter and concave support, which ensures self-alignment to compensate for initial mounting errors.
• Lubrication: Pre-lubricated with integrated seals for protection against dust and external agents​
   
  Operation and Assembly

The FY 60 TF bearing is supplied ready for installation and requires no special, complex procedures. Thanks to the four-hole flange, it can be mounted directly onto the bearing surface using bolts. The design facilitates installation in limited spaces and allows for use in various mechanical configurations, helping minimize the risk of misalignment that could compromise bearing life.

Sectors of Use

This type of bearing is commonly used in agriculture, construction, the food industry, and transport and handling machinery. Its ability to withstand harsh environments and high loads makes it ideal for industrial applications requiring reliability and minimal maintenance.

Mathematical Formulas for Calculation

To calculate bearing life, the basic SKF formula can be used: L10=(CP)3L_{10} = \left( \frac{C}{P} \right)^3 $L$ 10 ​= $($ P C ​) 3 where L10L_{10} $L$ 10 ​is CC $C$ is the dynamic load rating and PP $P$ is the applied load. For life calculations and to correctly size the bearing based on the load and speed, it is recommended to consult the SKF catalogue or a qualified engineer.

Price and Availability

The average price for the FY 60 TF unit ranges from €87 to €113, depending on the supplier and sales conditions. Buying this type of product in stock allows you to avoid production delays and respond quickly to replacement or installation needs
