A LINK-BELT tensioner unit from the B22400 series is a mounted bearing assembly that keeps proper tension in chain and belt drives. Mounted on the slack side, it can be repositioned as the chain or belt stretches. The housing and the bearing inside it handle radial loads along with a degree of axial thrust. Conveyors, elevators and agricultural machinery rely on this kind of unit, since steady tension limits jumping and early wear. MR Industrial Accessories LLC supplies this line and helps buyers match the correct part number to the job.

Read the code TB224M piece by piece: TB stands for tensioner unit, 224 identifies the bearing size and type, and M refers to the mounting, while H covers the fastening type. In references such as TB224M25H, TB224M30H and TB224M40H, the two digits ahead of the H give the shaft diameter in millimeters, so 25, 30 and 40 mm respectively. That numeric suffix is the quickest way to confirm which shaft size a given unit fits.

These units turn up in chain conveyors, bucket elevators, belt conveyors and farm equipment, and also in mining, cement and food processing plants. Their job is to take up changes in chain or belt length so tension stays where it belongs, which keeps vibration and misalignment in check. They suit drives exposed to dust, moisture or fluctuating loads.

Selection comes down to shaft diameter, mounting style and the conditions on site. Check that the bearing's sealing matches the environment; labyrinth or contact seals give better defense against contaminants. Use the lubricant the manufacturer calls for and inspect it on a regular schedule. At mounting, line the unit up accurately with the chain or belt and set tension to the equipment specifications.

B22400 series tensioner units from LINK-BELT can be swapped with other brands that carry similar designations, but mounting dimensions and load capacity are not always the same. Compare drawings and critical dimensions before you replace anything. MR Industrial Accessories LLC can help you find the right equivalent and steer clear of compatibility issues.
