Description

TSUBAKI BB15 is a freewheel reference, within Power transmission. Request a quote for BB15 via WhatsApp or email with the quantity you need; we respond promptly with lead time and equivalents.

The TSUBAKI BB series freewheel is a power transmission component that allows rotation in one direction and locks movement in the opposite direction. It is used to prevent backstopping, control intermittent indexing and protect equipment. MR Accesorios Industriales supplies this line as an official brand, with the backing of more than 80 years in the industrial sector.

The BB series designation is completed with a number indicating the model size: BB15, BB17, BB20, BB25, BB30, BB35 and BB40. That number is not a diameter or a direct measurement, but an internal code that orders the series from lowest to highest capacity. To select the correct model, that code must be matched with the application conditions: torque, speed and mounting type. If you have doubts, send us the complete part number and we will verify it.

TSUBAKI BB series freewheels are used in equipment where retention or controlled indexing is needed: conveyor belts, bucket elevators, gearboxes, machine tools and positioning systems. In Argentine industry they appear in food, cement, steel and material handling plants, where load backstopping can damage equipment or create risks. They are also used as a safety component in transmissions that must rotate in one direction only.

To choose a freewheel, review the torque it must transmit, the rotation speed and the required locking direction. Mounting requires shafts and housings with good concentricity and alignment, because a mounting error shortens the mechanism's service life. Lubrication must be the one indicated for the seal type and environmental conditions: dust, humidity or temperature influence the selection. In critical applications, it is advisable to verify clearance and fastening type before requesting a quote.

Freewheels are available in different brands and equivalent series, but the codes are not always directly interchangeable. Each manufacturer defines its own mounting dimensions, torque capacities and speed limits. Therefore, before replacing one freewheel with another, the installation dimensions and service conditions must be compared. At MR Accesorios Industriales we help you find the right equivalent within the TSUBAKI line or other available alternatives.

If you need a TSUBAKI BB series freewheel, write to us via WhatsApp with the part number or model you are looking for. We will quote you promptly and advise you so the selection is correct. MR Accesorios Industriales, Buenos Aires, Argentina.
