Link-Belt ZST series tensioner brackets are mounted units that combine an insert bearing with a housing designed to regulate the tension of conveyor belts, chains and belts. They are used when the tensioner needs to be held in position and minor misalignments absorbed. MR Accesorios Industriales sells this line as an official brand and advises you on choosing the right unit according to shaft diameter and mounting type.
The ZST designation identifies the tensioner brackets of the Link-Belt 5000 series. Codes starting with ZST combine letters and numbers that indicate the size and configuration of the housing: for example, ZST5510818 and ZST5511118 share the base of the code and vary in shaft diameter or fastening type. The numeric suffixes distinguish variants of mounting, sealing or tensioner arm length. To correctly interpret each reference, the most practical approach is to send the complete code via WhatsApp and we will indicate the equivalent unit or the compatible alternative.
These tensioner brackets are used in belt conveyors, bucket elevators, sorting belts and chain drive systems. In Argentine industry they appear in food, cement, aggregate, chemical and logistics plants, where constant belt tension is critical to prevent slipping and premature wear. They are also used in material handling equipment and in packaging lines that require periodic tension adjustment.
To select a ZST tensioner bracket, take into account the shaft diameter, the type of insert bearing the housing accepts and the adjustment travel required by the system. Sealing is key in dusty or humid environments: verify that the unit has suitable seals. During mounting, align the bracket with the belt line and adjust tension gradually to avoid overloading the bearing. Lubrication must follow the manufacturer's recommendations for each application.
Link-Belt tensioner brackets are interchangeable with other brands of mounted brackets of similar configuration, provided that shaft dimensions, mounting holes and load capacity match. In the local market there are alternatives of different origins, but interchangeability requires comparing drawing to drawing. If you need to replace existing equipment, MR Accesorios Industriales helps you identify the equivalence and quotes the option that best suits your machine.
To proceed with the quote, send us via WhatsApp the complete code of the tensioner bracket (for example, ZST5510818) or a photo of the equipment plate. With that data we will quote you promptly and indicate the compatible alternative if necessary. MR Accesorios Industriales has more than 80 years supporting Argentine industry with power transmission components and bearing housings.
