FAQ

What size bearing and shaft does this housing accommodate?

This versatile housing typically accommodates a bearing for a 40 mm shaft, such as a 1208 K self-aligning ball bearing or a 22208 K spherical roller bearing. With an appropriate adapter sleeve, it can also be used for a 35 mm shaft. Always verify your specific bearing and shaft dimensions before installation.

What type of lubrication is recommended for a bearing in this housing?

The correct lubrication depends on the bearing, speed, and operating conditions. This housing usually has a grease nipple port for easy relubrication. For general applications, a high-quality lithium-based grease (NLGI 2) is often suitable. Please refer to the bearing manufacturer’s datasheet for specific recommendations.

Is this a direct replacement for an SKF or FAG housing?

The AKN 508-605 is dimensionally similar to other 508 series housings like the SKF SNL 508-607 or FAG SNV072. However, it is crucial to check key dimensions such as center height and bolt hole spacing against your existing unit to guarantee a perfect fit, as minor casting variations can occur between manufacturers.
