The DODGE WSTU-SXV take-up bearing is a mounted unit that combines a take-up housing with an insert bearing. It is used to control tension in belt or chain drives and to compensate for stretching or adjust shaft travel. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this line to customers in the United States and several Latin American countries.

The part number breaks down into three elements. WSTU indicates the take-up bearing type with insert bearing. SXV identifies the insert series. The final number gives the shaft diameter in inches, as seen in WSTU-SXV-012 or WSTU-SXV-104. That last figure is not an internal code; it defines the shaft size where the unit mounts. Always provide the complete part number when requesting a variant to avoid confusion.

These bearings are found in belt conveyors, packaging lines, belt drive lines and equipment where constant tension must be maintained. They absorb tension variations and help extend the life of belts and chains, reducing downtime for manual adjustments. Typical settings include food plants, cement plants, tanneries and maintenance workshops.

Selection depends on shaft diameter, load type and environmental conditions. The insert sealing protects against dust and moisture; in dirty or washdown environments, verify the seal type. During mounting, align the bearing with the drive and adjust tension without forcing the bearing. Proper lubrication and periodic retightening of the bolts ensure stable operation.

DODGE mounted bearings can be interchanged with other brands that use equivalent designations, as long as the shaft diameter, housing type and locking system match. A similar part number alone is not enough; the geometry and locking method must be compared. If you are unsure, send a photo or the original part number and we will indicate a compatible alternative.
