The LINK-BELT TDS3U231N is a tensioner bearing in a mounted housing, part of the BR101 line. It keeps proper tension on the slack side of chain and belt drives, taking up stretch and play as the system runs. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this brand and can help you match the exact variant to your application.

Reading the code helps you order correctly. TDS marks the tensioner bearing family; 3 is the housing type; U means a mounted bearing with a one-piece insert; the following number sets size and load capacity; N is the locking method. In this series, the last digits point to the mounting variant or shaft diameter. Suffixes such as Δ■ show sealing and configuration choices.

These units are common on chain conveyors, bucket elevators, belt conveyors and belt drives in food, cement, mining, port and agro-industrial operations. Their job is to absorb length changes and hold steady tension, which helps chains, belts and sprockets last longer. MR Industrial Accessories supplies them for both replacements and new projects.

When selecting, check shaft diameter, load type (radial, axial or combined), site conditions such as dust, moisture and temperature, and the lubrication method. Look at the sealing: labyrinths or seals keep contaminants out. Mounting must align the bearing with the rest of the drive, because misalignment speeds up wear. Correct lubrication and internal clearance are key to service life. If you are unsure, send us the full code.

LINK-BELT tensioner bearings can interchange with other brands that use equivalent designations, including SKF, FAG, NSK or NTN, provided dimensions, load capacity and locking type match. The TDS series has correspondences with mounted bearing lines from other makers. To replace safely, compare the main dimensions and the sealing system. If the original code is not available, MR Industrial Accessories will point you to a compatible alternative.
