The DODGE TP-GM tensioner bracket is a mounted bearing with a tensioning function, designed to maintain correct tension in belt or chain drives. It integrates an insert bearing in a housing that allows position adjustment, which simplifies mounting and adjustment on equipment where the center distance is not fixed. MR Accesorios Industriales sells this line as an official brand and advises you on choosing the right variant for your shaft and application.
The TP-GM designation reads as a family of tensioner brackets with insert bearing: TP indicates the tensioner type and GM the construction series. The numbers that follow identify each size within the series, as in TP-GM-111, TP-GM-200 or TP-GM-208. That numbering is not sequential and does not indicate the diameter on its own: each code corresponds to a specific combination of shaft and housing. Therefore, to quote the correct one, it is best to provide the complete code shown on the nameplate or the equipment drawing.
These brackets are used in industries that need to maintain belt and chain tension: food, textile, ceramic, packaging, material handling and process plants in general. In Argentina they are commonly found in conveyors, screens, mixers, fans and bottling lines. The housing allows the bearing to be moved to compensate for belt stretch or chain wear, which extends the service life of the assembly and reduces maintenance downtime.
To select the tensioner bracket, take into account the shaft diameter, the mounting type and the space available for adjustment. Verify that the housing allows the necessary travel to tension and that the base is aligned with the rest of the drive. The insert bearing usually comes with sealing to retain lubricant and exclude contaminants; if the environment has dust or moisture, it is advisable to check the seal type. Lubrication and internal clearance are defined according to the load and operating speed.
As for equivalences, tensioner brackets with insert bearings from different brands can be interchanged if the mounting dimensions, shaft diameter and mounting system match. It is not enough for the code to be similar: drawings or samples must be compared. MR Accesorios Industriales can indicate the compatible alternative within the brands it sells, or manufacture the bracket to measure if the application requires it.
If you need to replace a TP-GM tensioner bracket or find an equivalent variant, send us the complete code via WhatsApp. With that information we will quote the DODGE reference or the alternative that best suits your equipment. We can also advise you on mounting and lubrication so that the bearing works under the correct conditions.

Frequently Asked Questions
- What does the TP-GM designation mean on a tensioner bracket?
- TP indicates that it is a tensioner bracket and GM the DODGE construction series. The numbers that follow identify each size within the series, such as TP-GM-111 or TP-GM-208. They are not sequential: each code corresponds to a specific combination of shaft and housing.
- How do I choose the replacement if I can't find the same code?
- Compare the shaft diameter, the base dimensions and the adjustment travel. With that information, MR can indicate a compatible alternative from another brand or evaluate in-house manufacturing. Send the code or dimensions via WhatsApp and we'll send you a quote.
- What should I check when mounting a tensioner bracket?
- Verify alignment with the drive, the available travel for tensioning and the condition of the sealing. Lubricate according to the type of insert bearing and check the internal clearance. A misaligned mounting shortens the service life of the bearing and of the belt or chain.
