A LINK-BELT TU300 series unit pairs a Y-shaped housing with an insert bearing, giving you a ready-to-bolt support for a rotating shaft. You will find this style of mounted unit across power transmission, conveying and process equipment. MR Industrial Accessories supplies it to maintenance and purchasing teams in the United States and Latin America.

Reading the code helps you order the right piece. TU stands for the housing and how it mounts; the three digits after it set the size and variant, so TU314, TU315 and TU316 belong to one family but are not dimensionally the same. Suffixes trailing the number flag specific choices of seal, locking method or housing material. Before you pick a number, have the shaft diameter and the load type in front of you.

Typical duty covers belt conveyors, bucket elevators, mixers, mills and similar process lines in food, chemical, cement and aggregate operations. What makes the Y-shaped body useful is that it accepts the shaft in any orientation and simplifies the first alignment pass, which suits supports bolted onto steel structures.

Selection comes down to shaft diameter, the radial and axial loads you expect, and where the unit sits. The insert seal has to match the site: dust, moisture or routine washdowns each call for a different answer. Bolt the housing down on a flat, clean surface and tighten the fasteners evenly. Lubrication practice and internal clearance both shape how long the bearing lasts. Where misalignment is part of normal operation, look for a housing with more self-aligning capacity.

Interchange between brands is possible when mounting dimensions, shaft diameter and locking style line up, so an equivalent can often replace a LINK-BELT unit. Check the critical dimensions before you swap anything out; that is how you avoid vibration and early failure. Send us the part number and our team can confirm the match or propose an alternative.
