Tsubaki BR-HT series freewheels are power transmission mechanisms that allow rotation in one direction and lock reverse movement. They are used as backstops, for indexing or to couple and decouple shafts depending on speed. MR Accesorios Industriales supplies them in Buenos Aires, Argentina, for transmission equipment that requires precise control of rotation direction.

The BR-HT series designation is read in blocks: the letters BR identify the freewheel family, the number that follows indicates the model size and the HT suffix indicates the series variant. Then a second number appears next to the letters WC, which corresponds to the mounting configuration or housing type. In the examples BR180HT-S180WC, BR220HT-S220WC, BR240HT-S240WC and BR260HT-S260WC you can see that the number in the first part is repeated in the second: that is why it is best to provide the complete part number when requesting a quote.

These freewheels are used in inclined conveyors, bucket elevators, loading and unloading belts, and in equipment where backrunning due to gravity must be prevented. They also appear in indexing systems, packaging machines, mixers and two-speed drives. In Argentine industry they are found in food, cement, mining, port and materials handling plants, where one-way locking protects the equipment and the load.

To choose a freewheel, check the shaft diameter, the torque it must transmit, the rotation speed and the required locking direction. Mounting requires aligned shafts and clean surfaces, with the lubrication specified by the manufacturer and adequate sealing if there is dust or moisture. Axial fixing and clearance between components affect performance: a misaligned installation accelerates roller wear and reduces service life.

Freewheels are available in different brands and configurations, and interchangeability depends on mounting dimensions, permissible torque and locking type. A similar part number is not enough: the technical data sheet of each model must be compared. If you need to replace a freewheel, send us the complete part number and shaft dimensions so we can guide you in the selection.
