A DODGE WSTU-SXR take-up bearing is a mounted unit built around an insert bearing, made to hold the right tension in belt and chain drives. The housing can be positioned in several ways and moved to take up stretch as it develops. You will find it on conveyors, fans, screens and other equipment where tension needs regular adjustment. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this DODGE line to customers in the United States and Latin America, and can help you confirm the correct size.

Read the WSTU-SXR code in three parts. WSTU tells you it is a take-up bearing with an insert unit, SXR is the unit series, and the trailing number gives the bore size. The small end of the range runs from WSTU-SXR-012 to WSTU-SXR-014, while WSTU-SXR-100 through WSTU-SXR-104 cover the larger sizes. Suffixes cannot be swapped between one another, since each part number carries its own shaft diameter and mounting arrangement.

Typical installations include belt conveyors, bucket elevators, sorting belts, axial and centrifugal fans, vibrating screens and chain drives. The bearing takes up the stretch that belts and chains develop over time so tension stays correct without tearing the whole system apart. Industries such as food processing, cement, aggregates, waste treatment and packaging rely on this type of unit.

Selection comes down to three things: the shaft diameter, whether the load is radial, axial or combined, and the conditions around the unit. The insert seal determines how well the bearing stands up to dust, water or washdown, so match the seal grade to the environment. Use the lubricant the manufacturer specifies, line the housing up with the shaft during mounting to avoid added stress, and adjust tension by sliding the bearing along its base.

Other brands offer units that cross to DODGE, yet housing dimensions and center height are not always the same. Before you replace a unit, check the full part number, the shaft diameter and the mounting dimensions together. If the same part number is not available to you, MR Industrial Accessories can point you to a compatible alternative. What fits depends on the series and the insert type, not on bore size alone.
