The Link-Belt T3U take-up bracket is a mounted bearing from the 200 series, designed to absorb tension variations in chain or belt drives. It is installed on the slack side and allows tension adjustment without disassembling the system. MR Accesorios Industriales distributes this line in Buenos Aires, Argentina, with technical advice to choose the correct size according to the pitch and load of your drive.

The T3U designation combines the T prefix with the U body and the 200 series number. In the examples T3U210N, T3U211N and T3U212N, the final two digits indicate the shaft diameter: 10 for 10, 11 for 11 and 12 for 12, always in the 200 series numbering system. The N suffix indicates a specific bracket configuration, which remains constant in this line. To order the correct code, send the complete number shown on the plate or drawing.

These take-up brackets are used in chain conveyors, bucket elevators, belt conveyors and belt drives in food, cement, mining and aggregate processing plants. In Argentina, they are common in sugar mills, storage plants and packaging lines. Their function is to maintain constant tension, reduce chain slap and extend the life of sprockets and pulleys. They are also used on fan and pump shafts that require adjustment.

To select the bracket, take into account the shaft diameter, the fastening type and the available space. Verify that the base allows the necessary travel for tensioning. The sealing must be suitable for the environment: in areas with dust or humidity, choose versions with seals that protect the bearing. Lubrication is key: follow the frequency recommended by the manufacturer and use compatible grease. When mounting, align the bracket with the shaft and the drive to avoid side loads.

Link-Belt take-up brackets are interchangeable with other brands that use the same 200 series nomenclature, such as SKF, FAG or NTN, as long as the shaft dimensions and hole spacing match. In practice, interchangeability depends on the mounting dimensions and the sealing type. If you need to replace existing equipment, send us the original code and the shaft measurements; we will indicate the compatible alternative or manufacture it to measure if necessary.
