The Link-Belt CU series cartridge unit is a cartridge mounted bearing, series 300, designed to be mounted directly in a cylindrical housing. It is used in equipment where a compact, self-aligning unit is needed to support moderate radial and axial loads. MR Accesorios Industriales supplies this line as an official brand, with more than 80 years of experience in the Argentine industrial market.

The CU series designation is read with the letter C followed by the letter U and a three-digit number indicating the size. For example, CU314, CU315, CU316, CU318, CU319, CU320, CU322 and CU323 correspond to different shaft diameters within the 300 series. The number is not an arbitrary code: the higher the figure, the greater the load capacity and outside dimension. To identify the exact size, send us the complete part number shown on the nameplate or on the old bearing.

These cartridge units are used in belt conveyors, bucket elevators, mixers, mills, centrifugal pumps and process equipment in food, chemical, cement and aggregate processing plants. In Argentina, they are common in the oilseed, meat processing and mining industries, where mounting in a cylindrical housing simplifies maintenance and reduces downtime. They are also used in older machines that require compatible replacements without modifying the housing.

To select the correct unit, take into account the shaft diameter, the type of load (radial, axial or combined), the rotation speed and the environmental conditions. Sealing is key: in environments with dust or moisture, choose the version with a lip seal or higher-protection seals. Mounting requires cleaning the housing, verifying that it has no burrs and lubricating the raceway before inserting the cartridge. Alignment between units must be careful to avoid additional stresses.

Link-Belt CU series cartridge units are interchangeable with other brands that manufacture cartridge mounted bearings with the same 300 series, as long as the main dimensions match: shaft diameter, outside diameter and width. Do not assume equivalents by number: compare the actual dimensions or consult us with the original part number. MR Accesorios Industriales can indicate the compatible alternative among the brands it supplies.

If you need a Link-Belt CU series cartridge unit, write to us via WhatsApp with the complete part number (for example, CU314) or with the shaft and housing dimensions. We will quote it shortly and advise you so you choose the right variant. MR Accesorios Industriales, Buenos Aires, Argentina, with more than 80 years supporting industry.
