For belt and chain tensioning, the UKT take-up housing pairs an NSK insert bearing with a cast iron housing. It mounts directly on the shaft and can be fastened in different positions, which helps when adjustment points are tight. This unit keeps the correct tension and guides the belt or chain path in equipment where tensioning is critical.
The UKT code identifies the take-up housing series. The number after it gives the size. A D1 suffix marks a construction variant of the insert, and the HE code in examples such as HE2306X or HE2308X refers to the adapter sleeve that mounts the bearing on the shaft. That sleeve lets the unit fit shafts without a shoulder.
These mounted units appear in food and bottling plants, mining, cement, agriculture, textile machines, industrial laundries and ventilation systems. Their job is to hold belt and chain tension as the drive stretches and loads change, which supports the service life of transmission parts and cuts maintenance downtime.
When selecting a UKT unit, check shaft diameter, radial load and the working environment. The insert with HE sleeve is made for unmachined shafts and interference fit. Confirm that the shaft aligns with the belt or chain, and make sure lubrication is adequate. The insert seal protects against dust and moisture; for aggressive conditions, look at variants with special seals. During mounting, avoid direct blows to the bearing.
NSK UKT take-up housings can be interchanged with units from other manufacturers that follow the same dimensional nomenclature. Before replacing, verify the critical dimensions: shaft diameter, center height and distance between mounting holes. If you have a code from another brand, send it and we will identify the compatible alternative.

- How do I choose the UKT housing size for my shaft?
- The number after UKT indicates the shaft diameter in millimeters multiplied by 5. Also check the load and working conditions to select the right insert.
- Are NSK UKT housings interchangeable with other brands?
- In general, yes, they are interchangeable with units from other manufacturers that follow the same dimensional standard. It is essential to compare shaft diameter, center height and distance between mounting holes before replacing.
