The DODGE GTEZ series take-up bearing is a mounted unit that combines a cast iron housing with a ball insert bearing. It is used to tension chains, belts and conveyors where the shaft position must be adjusted. MR Industrial Accessories LLC supplies this line to customers across the United States and in several Latin American countries.

The code on these take-ups follows a structure: the first letters indicate the housing type and mounting arrangement, GTEZ identifies the take-up series with insert bearing, and the number after the hyphen gives the shaft diameter in inches. The suffix S denotes the insert sealing type, while PCR indicates the shaft locking system. For example, WSTU-GTEZ-104S-PCR combines housing, series, shaft size and endings, so you can specify the exact variant you need.

Typical applications include belt and chain conveyors, bucket elevators, packaging lines, grain and oilseed belts, and milling or balancing equipment. They are also common in food plants, cement plants, tanneries and mining operations, where maintaining proper tension on the transmission element helps prevent chain skip and uneven wear. The mounting format is compatible with many installed units, making these take-ups suitable for reconditioning older machines.

When selecting a take-up, consider the shaft diameter, the sealing type for your environment (dust, water, washdown), the insert internal clearance and the shaft locking system. During installation, align the housing with the transmission line, tighten the tension screws gradually, and verify that the bearing turns freely before applying load to the chain or belt. The insert is lubricated at the factory; in service, check the sealing condition and relubricate if the equipment allows.

Take-up bearings are interchangeable between manufacturers based on shaft diameter, housing type and locking configuration, not the commercial code. With the shaft size, hole spacing and a photo of the assembly, a compatible alternative can be identified. MR Industrial Accessories LLC can suggest equivalents and, if a take-up is not available in the standard line, can discuss custom manufacturing options.
