SS-316 Take-Up Double Roller Bearing Units

316 stainless steel take-up bearing unit

  • 5× higher load capacity
  • Chemical resistance
  • Very well sealed with labyrinth seals

The EXT take-up bearing unit is made for heavy-duty applications and corrosive environments. It offers 5× higher load capacity due to the use of self-aligning double row ball bearings.

The screw take-up bearing housing is made of stainless steel grade 316 (UNS S31600), which is rustproof and resistant to corrosion from seawater — ideal for washdown applications in wet or harsh environments.

Take-up bearing units are used as conveyor belt drum bearings where shaft adjustment for conveyor belt tensioning is required. A tensioner extends or retracts the conveyor pulley to adjust the tension on the conveyor belt.

EXT Take-Up Bearing Unit Dimensions and Mounting Specifications

Load Directions for the EXT Take-Up Bearing Unit

Take-up stainless steel bearing units are intended for loads acting vertically towards the base plate support. Therefore, if the bearing housing is supported over its entire base, loads are limited only by the load limits of the bearing insert. If loads acting in other directions occur or if the housing is not supported over its entire base area, check that the magnitude of the load is permissible for the bolt assembly attached to the machine frame.
