The LINK-BELT HM U N series hanger bearing is a mounted bearing that is fastened to the frame or structure to support line shafts in motion. It is used when the shaft needs an intermediate support point, especially in conveyors, elevators and drive systems where the span is long. MR Accesorios Industriales sells this line and helps you choose the correct code according to the diameter and type of mounting.

The designation of these hanger bearings combines letters and numbers that identify the type of housing and the shaft diameter. In the HM U N series, the letters HM indicate the hanger bearing style with mounting flange; the U indicates the type of inserted bearing; the final N corresponds to a sealing or locking variant. Examples HM3U224N, HM3U239N and HM3U255N show how the central number changes according to diameter: the higher the number, the larger the shaft capacity. To choose correctly, provide the complete code that appears on the nameplate or in the equipment manual.

These hanger bearings are used in industries that move bulk materials or continuous process lines: cement plants, aggregate plants, flour mills, feed lots, sugar mills and effluent treatment plants. They also appear in belt conveyors and bucket elevators, where the drive shaft needs a hanger support that absorbs radial loads and allows rotation with alignment. In Argentina, MR Accesorios Industriales sells them for replacement and new projects, with technical advice so that the hanger bearing works within its limits.

To select the correct hanger bearing, consider 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, water or frequent washdowns, a protection that prevents the entry of contaminants is advisable. Lubrication must be the one indicated by the manufacturer and assembly requires aligning the hanger bearing with the shaft to avoid parasitic stresses. If the original equipment has a hanger bearing, replace it with one of similar characteristics.

Regarding equivalents, hanger bearings from different brands can be interchanged if the mounting dimensions, shaft diameter and type of mounting match. It is not enough for the code to be similar: you must verify the center height, the distance between holes and the bearing locking system. MR Accesorios Industriales will indicate the compatible alternative within the brands it sells, always with the complete designation to avoid errors.

Frequently Asked Questions

How do I identify the hanger bearing I need?
Look for the complete code on the part or in the equipment manual. The LINK-BELT HM U N series has variants according to shaft diameter and type of mounting. If you cannot find the code, send us a photo and the shaft dimensions via WhatsApp and we will help you identify it.
What is the difference between a hanger bearing and a foot-mounted bearing?
The hanger bearing is fastened from above, to a structure or frame, and supports the shaft at an intermediate point. The foot-mounted bearing rests on a base. The choice depends on the available space and how the equipment is assembled. Both serve to support the shaft, but they are not interchangeable without adapting the mounting.
Does MR sell the LINK-BELT brand?
Yes, MR Accesorios Industriales sells LINK-BELT. You can ask us about any code in the HM U N series and we will quote you promptly. We also offer compatible alternatives from other brands we sell, always verifying dimensions and type of mounting.
