The SEALMASTER VTWS take-up unit is a mounted bearing with a take-up housing, designed to maintain tension in chain or belt drives. It is installed on the slack side and allows position adjustment to compensate for stretch and wear. MR Accesorios Industriales supplies this line in Buenos Aires, Argentina, with more than 80 years of experience in industrial components.
The VTWS designation identifies the series of take-up units with insert bearing. The number following the hyphen indicates the shaft diameter: VTWS-112 for 1 1/2" shaft, VTWS-114 for 1 3/4", VTWS-115 for 1 15/16", VTWS-116 for 2", VTWS-118 for 2 3/16", VTWS-119 for 2 3/8", VTWS-120 for 2 1/2" and VTWS-122 for 2 3/4". The VTWS 100, 200 and 300 series group different capacities and housing configurations.
These take-up units are used in chain conveyors, bucket elevators, belt conveyors and belt drive systems in food, cement, mining and logistics plants. In Argentina they are common in the oilseed, meat processing and aggregate processing industries, where constant tension extends the life of chains and belts.
To select the unit, verify the shaft diameter and the required mounting type. The insert bearing usually comes with labyrinth or contact sealing, suitable for dusty or humid environments. Installation requires aligning the housing with the drive slack side and adjusting tension with the unit mechanism. Lubrication is permanent in most inserts; in severe applications, choose versions with an additional oil seal.
SEALMASTER VTWS take-up units are interchangeable with other brands that use the same shaft diameter nomenclature and housing configuration. When requesting a quote, indicate the complete part number and working conditions to receive the right alternative. MR Accesorios Industriales advises you so that the replacement is compatible with your equipment.
