The DODGE SCM series Y-bearing take-up unit is a mounted take-up unit: it combines an insert ball bearing with a housing that allows it to be mounted directly on the shaft and fixed to the frame. It is used to guide and tension shafts in conveyors, belts and light-duty drives. MR Accesorios Industriales supplies this DODGE line in Buenos Aires, Argentina, with more than 80 years of experience in bearings and industrial accessories.
The designation NSTU-SCM-#M reads as follows: NSTU identifies the mounted unit with insert bearing and take-up housing; SCM is the insert bearing series, medium section and with set screw locking; the number that follows indicates the shaft diameter in millimeters, and the final M indicates the sealing type. That is why references such as NSTU-SCM-25M, NSTU-SCM-30M or NSTU-SCM-40M cover shafts of different sizes within the same family. Knowing this logic allows you to request the exact part number you need.
These units are used in belt conveyors, conveyor belts, elevators, screens and continuous process machines. They also appear in equipment in the food, cement, mining and material handling industries, where the shaft needs a take-up support that absorbs slight misalignments and combined loads. In Argentina you will find them in aggregate plants, mills, food plants and packaging lines, among many other applications.
To select the unit, start from the shaft diameter shown in the part number and check the locking type: SCM series inserts are locked with set screws on the shaft. Check the sealing according to the environment: in the presence of dust or moisture, a tighter seal is advisable. During mounting, align the housing with the shaft and tighten the locking screws with the appropriate wrench, without striking the insert. Lubricate according to the duty cycle and check radial clearance after mounting.
Y-bearing take-up units are interchangeable between brands if the shaft diameter, center height and locking type match. When requesting a quote, compare those three variables and the sealing. If the original part number is not available, a compatible alternative from another brand or in-house manufacturing can be offered where applicable. MR Accesorios Industriales advises you to find the unit that best suits your equipment.
To move forward with the quote, send us the complete part number of the unit you need via WhatsApp, for example NSTU-SCM-35M, or the shaft and housing dimensions. We will quote you promptly and indicate the compatible alternative if needed. MR Accesorios Industriales supplies the DODGE line and other brands of bearings and accessories, with technical support so you can get your equipment running without delays.
