What type of sealing does this bearing unit use?
As part of SKF's Food Line of Y-bearings, it uses the brand's signature multiple-seal system. The inner ring has a flinger that acts as a barrier to prevent contaminants from entering the bearing. Grease in the gap between the lip seals and an inner radial seal provides an additional layer of protection. This innovative sealing system allows the bearing to be washed down without interfering with its proper function.
