The NTN UCTX take-up housing is a ready-to-mount assembly that combines an insert bearing with a sliding housing. It is designed to regulate the tension of chains or belts in conveyors, elevators, and transmission systems where stretch must be offset or tension kept steady. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this NTN line to customers throughout the United States and Latin America, and quotes by part number.

The UCTX code breaks down into meaningful segments: UCT signals a take-up housing with insert bearing, X denotes a design variant, and the following numbers define the housing size and configuration. The numeric block covers larger dimensions. A D1 suffix points to a particular insert execution. For an accurate match, provide the full part number from the nameplate or the old component.

Typical applications include belt and chain conveyors, bucket elevators, packaging lines, and agricultural machinery. In food, cement, and mining plants, as well as in the field, dust and moisture make sealing quality critical. Because the housing slides, tension can be adjusted without dismantling the whole system, which reduces maintenance effort. As a complete assembly, it is replaced as a unit when play or noise appears, avoiding partial repairs.

When selecting a UCTX take-up housing, consider shaft diameter, chain pitch or belt width, and the adjustment travel required. Installation involves aligning the housing with the transmission and fastening it to the guide or take-up base. The insert bearing is lubricated at the factory, but in contaminated environments check the seal and relubricate if a grease fitting is present. Proper tension prevents chain skipping and premature wear on sprockets and pulleys.

If you are replacing a take-up housing from another brand, we can help identify an equivalent. The most efficient approach is to send the original part number or the main dimensions: shaft diameter, distance between mounting centers, and overall height. With that information, we provide the corresponding NTN UCTX part number. Avoid substituting a housing from a different series because mounting dimensions and tension travel will differ.

To request a quote for your NTN UCTX take-up housing, send the exact part number via WhatsApp or email. If you do not have it, send the shaft and housing dimensions and we will assist with identification. Our team responds promptly with the quote and the technical details you need.
