Overview
FYH has made pillow block units since 1950 and does little else, which is the point of it. The catalogue runs to roughly 700 standard bearings and 300 housings, held to tolerances tighter than the Japanese industrial standard so the units take high speed.
A bearing unit is the answer when there is no machined housing to press a bearing into: the bearing, its housing and its seals arrive as one part that bolts to a frame. Petrofab holds FYH in Doha and quotes the rest of the FYH catalogue through its supplier base.
What we supply
Mounted bearing units: pillow blocks, flange units, take up units and cartridge units, in cast iron, pressed steel and stainless steel, in metric and imperial sizes.

Reading an FYH number
An FYH number names the housing first and the insert bearing second. These are the codes on the FYH units we hold.
| Code | What it means |
| UC | Insert bearing, spherical outer surface, located on the shaft with set screws |
| P | Pillow block housing, which bolts to a surface beneath the shaft |
| F, FC | Flange housing, square and round, which bolts to a face the shaft passes through |
| T | Take up housing, which slides in a frame to tension a belt or a conveyor |
A bearing usually has an equivalent under another brand, and the letters are where the two differ. Send whichever number is in front of you and we will identify what fits.
Ordering
Send us the FYH number with the quantity. If the marking has worn off, send the bore, the outside diameter and the width, and tell us what it runs in and how hard it works. We will identify the equivalent and quote it. Quantities and delivery are confirmed on the quotation.
