The LINK-BELT HM U N series hanger bearing is a mounted bearing that is fastened to the frame or structure to support drive 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 supplies this line as an official brand and helps you choose the correct code according to diameter and mounting type.

The designation of these hanger bearings combines letters and numbers that identify the housing type and shaft diameter. In the HM U N series, the letters HM indicate the flanged hanger bearing style; the U indicates the inserted bearing type; the final N corresponds to a sealing or fastening variant. Examples HM3U224N, HM3U239N and HM3U255N show how the central number changes with 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 supplies 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, protection that prevents the ingress of contaminants is advisable. Lubrication must be as specified by the manufacturer and installation 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 fastening type match. It is not enough for the code to be similar: the center height, the distance between holes and the bearing locking system must be verified. MR Accesorios Industriales will indicate the compatible alternative within the brands it supplies, always with the complete designation to avoid errors.

If you need to replace a LINK-BELT HM U N series hanger bearing, send us the code via WhatsApp along with a photo of the part and the shaft dimensions. At MR Accesorios Industriales we will quote it promptly and, if necessary, offer you an equivalent alternative. We also manufacture split plummer block housings and custom special parts.

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 fastening type. 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 pillow block?
A hanger bearing is fastened from above, to a structure or frame, and supports the shaft at an intermediate point. A pillow block 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 supply the LINK-BELT brand?
Yes, MR Accesorios Industriales supplies LINK-BELT as an official brand. You can ask us about any code in the HM U N series and we will quote it promptly. We also offer compatible alternatives from other brands we supply, always verifying dimensions and fastening type.
