The NSK UKT series take-up bearing housing is a ready-to-mount assembly that pairs an insert bearing with a cast iron take-up housing. It is installed on the slack side of a chain or belt to maintain proper tension. Typical applications include conveyors, elevators and drives where tension needs to be adjusted without taking the equipment apart. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this NSK line to customers across the United States and Latin America, and provides quotes via WhatsApp or email when you send the part number or size.

Reading the UKT part number helps you order correctly. The letters UK denote the insert bearing with taper bushing, and T stands for the take-up housing. The number that follows indicates the insert size, and the D1 suffix identifies the standard sealing version. For example, in UKT205D1 and UKT305D1, the 205 or 305 sets the insert size, while HE2305 refers to the taper mounting sleeve for that size. With the complete part number, you order the assembled unit.

In US industry, these take-ups are common in belt and chain conveyors, bucket elevators, packaging lines and material handling equipment. Mounted on the slack side, they absorb chain or belt stretch to prevent jumping and premature wear. They also appear in agricultural machinery and food plants, where frequent washdowns demand sealing that keeps lubrication in and water and dust out.

When selecting a take-up bearing housing, consider shaft diameter, chain pitch or belt type, and the radial load the unit will carry. The insert with taper bushing is fixed to the shaft using the HE sleeve and tightened with the corresponding lock nut, allowing axial position adjustment. Check that the housing aligns with the slack side before tensioning, lubricate the insert according to the duty cycle, and verify clearance after the first hours of operation.

UKT units are interchangeable between brands by dimensional designation: the same insert number maintains shaft diameter and housing dimensions, even if the manufacturer or sealing suffix changes. When replacing a unit, compare the insert part number and taper bushing type, not just the outer size. If you have an unidentified part or another brand's part number, MR Industrial Accessories can identify the compatible equivalent and quote the complete unit.

We will respond promptly with the unit that matches your equipment. If you need multiple sizes for the same conveyor, send the full list and we will quote them together.
