The LINK-BELT tensioner bearing of the TH Y N series is a mounted bearing designed to absorb stretch in belt or chain drive systems. It is installed on the return run or in the tensioning zone and allows the position to be adjusted to maintain correct tension. Its robust construction makes it suitable for demanding industrial environments with dust, moisture or variable loads. MR Accesorios Industriales sells this line as an official brand, with more than 80 years of experience in the Argentine market.
The designation of these bearings combines letters and numbers that identify the housing type and the shaft diameter. In the TH Y N series, the initial letters TH indicate the tensioner bearing style, while the letter Y indicates the fastening or sealing type. The middle numbers, as in TH3Y212N or TH3Y216N, correspond to the shaft diameter in inches according to the 200 series. The final letter N completes the identification of the assembly. Understanding this logic allows you to request the exact part number you need.
These tensioner bearings are used in belt conveyors, bucket elevators, conveyor belts and chain systems in food, cement, mining, grain and port plants. In Argentina, they are common in the oilseed, meatpacking and aggregate processing industries. Their function is to maintain constant tension, compensate for wear and prevent jumps or misalignments that affect production. The 200 series is the most widespread for shafts up to several inches.
To select the correct bearing, take into account the shaft diameter, the type of load (radial, axial or combined) and the environmental conditions. If there is dust or water, choose versions with reinforced sealing. Installation requires aligning the bearing with the shaft and firmly fastening it to the structure; poor alignment accelerates wear. Lubrication must be the one indicated by the manufacturer, and it is advisable to check the axial play before start-up. These guidelines ensure long-lasting performance.
When looking for replacements, it is common to find equivalences between mounted bearing brands. Interchangeability depends on the housing dimensions, the shaft diameter and the fastening type. It is not enough for the part number to be similar: the critical dimensions must be verified. At MR Accesorios Industriales we advise you to find the alternative compatible with your equipment, whether from the same brand or another that fulfills the function. It is always advisable to compare drawings or physical samples before defining the replacement.
