The WSTU-SXRAG from DODGE is a tensioner bearing unit that pairs a ball insert bearing with a linear travel mechanism. It keeps consistent tension in chain or belt drives by compensating for stretch and vibration. The bearing's axial position can be adjusted without dismantling the system, making installation and maintenance straightforward. MR Industrial Accessories LLC supplies this unit for industrial applications across the United States and Latin America.
The part number breaks down into meaningful segments. WSTU indicates the tensioner unit family with an insert bearing. SXR AG refers to the tensioner mounted bearing series in the DODGE catalog. The final number, as in WSTU-SXRAG-104S, specifies shaft diameter and locking type. The suffix S denotes sealing or insert configuration variants. Reading the code this way helps you order the correct replacement.
Typical applications include chain conveyors, bucket elevators, belt conveyors, and belt drive systems in grain, food, cement, and aggregate processing. They also appear in industrial washing equipment and construction machinery. In these settings, constant tension prevents chain jumping and premature wear.
When selecting a tensioner unit, consider shaft diameter, frame mounting style, and environmental conditions. The insert seal must handle dust, moisture, or frequent washdowns as needed. Most inserts are lubricated for life, but checking axial play and alignment with the chain or belt is recommended. Misalignment accelerates wear on both the bearing and the drive.
DODGE SXR AG series tensioner units can be interchanged with other brands that follow the same mounting standard and shaft diameter. Equivalences are based on critical dimensions: shaft height, hole spacing, and insert type. Since not all brands use the same nomenclature, compare drawings or original part numbers. MR Industrial Accessories LLC can help you find a compatible alternative.
To replace a tensioner unit or build a new drive, send the part number WSTU-SXRAG-104S or the model from your equipment via WhatsApp or email. The team at MR Industrial Accessories LLC will quote promptly and suggest the best option for your application. They can also evaluate SXR AG series variants for other shaft diameters.

Frequently asked questions
- What is the difference between a tensioner unit and a fixed unit?
- A tensioner unit allows the bearing position to be adjusted to tension chains or belts, while a fixed unit keeps the shaft in a constant position. Tensioners are used where stretch occurs or periodic adjustment is needed.
- How do I determine the shaft size my equipment requires?
- Measure the shaft diameter where the insert mounts and the distance between mounting holes. With that data and the original part number, we can identify the equivalent unit. If unsure, send a photo or drawing via WhatsApp.
- Can the insert bearing of this unit be lubricated?
- Most inserts in the SXR AG series are lubricated for life, but some allow relubrication through a grease fitting. Check the insert type before mounting. If you need a replacement, we quote the complete assembly.
