The LINK-BELT MTHCL series mounted take-up bearing is a bearing assembly with a take-up housing, designed to keep the correct tension on conveyor belts, chains and belts. It is mounted on take-up and guide shafts, where the housing allows movement to adjust tension. Its medium-section design within the Medium Duty Ball Bearings line makes it suitable for moderate loads and the speeds usual in industrial plants. MR Accesorios Industriales sells it in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
The MTHCL series designation is read in blocks: the letters MTHCL identify the take-up housing type and the number that follows indicates the shaft diameter for which it is made. The example part numbers show that correspondence: each part number refers to a different shaft size. The final N suffix is part of the series nomenclature and does not change the function of the assembly. To order the correct replacement, provide the full part number exactly as it appears on the equipment.
These mounted take-up bearings are used in belt conveyors, bucket elevators, sorting belts and chain drive lines. In Argentina they appear in food plants, cement plants, quarries, ports and agro-industrial facilities, where the environment often has dust, humidity or frequent washdowns. The take-up housing allows tension to be adjusted without disassembling the system, which simplifies maintenance and reduces downtime. They are also used in material handling equipment and continuous process machines.
To select the take-up unit, start from the shaft diameter required by the equipment and the type of load: the Medium Duty Ball Bearings series covers moderate loads with a ball bearing. Check the available sealing according to the environment: in areas with fine dust or water, a tighter seal is advisable. During mounting, align the housing with the shaft and verify that the tension movement works without binding. Lubricate according to the duty cycle and check axial clearance before start-up. Careful alignment extends the life of the bearing and the housing.
Mounted take-up bearings are available from different brands with their own nomenclatures. Equivalence is not established by shaft diameter alone: housing height, mounting type and sealing vary. That is why it is advisable to compare the complete function of the assembly and not just the number. The alternative compatible with the same mounting dimensions is sought. At MR Accesorios Industriales we indicate the compatible alternative when needed.
