SKF bearing units typically consist of a housing, bearing, seal,
lubricant and shaft locking mechanism. The units are preassembled and
adjusted at the factory. These ready-to-mount units are available with
either ball or roller bearings.

In addition to standard all-steel units, SKF has a selection of
products that target particular industries, such as the food, beverage
and pharmaceutical industries where, for example, special materials,
lubricants, seals and housings are needed to meet application
performance and environment needs.

To accommodate the wide variety of performance characteristics of
SKF bearings, SKF designs and manufactures a full line of bearing
housings and housing seals. These housings and seals are well known for
their quality and durability. In addition to their unique design
features, which simplify mounting, alignment and relubrication, SKF
housings are precision-machined so that the incorporated bearing can
realize its full service life.
