Description
PEER ZUCT201-8 belongs to take-up bearing, part of our Bearing housings range. Tell us how many you need by WhatsApp or email and we'll get back to you promptly with a quote for ZUCT201-8 and any equivalents.
The PEER ZUCT is a mounted take-up unit that pairs an insert bearing with a cast iron housing. Its job is to hold tension in chain and belt drives by letting you shift the center distance as the drive stretches or goes slack, which helps the components last longer.
Reading the code is the fastest way to pick a unit. ZUCT names the take-up housing series with insert bearing. The digits that follow give the shaft diameter in inches, and the number after the hyphen pins down the exact size. So ZUCT201-8 fits a 1/2 inch shaft, while ZUCT202-9 and ZUCT202-10 cover 9/16 and 5/8 inch shafts. Match the code to your shaft diameter and the mounting style your equipment uses.
You will find these units on belt conveyors, agricultural machinery, bottling lines, mill and food plant drives, and other systems where a chain or belt needs steady tension. Keeping that tension constant is what stops slipping and early wear. Food processing, mining, cement and material handling operations are common places to see them.
Selection comes down to three things: shaft diameter, the load the unit will see, and the conditions around it. The insert bearing normally arrives pre-lubricated and fitted with seals that keep contamination out. Line everything up carefully at mounting so the bearing is not fighting side loads, and check lubrication and tension on a regular schedule.
PEER ZUCT units can be swapped with take-up housings from other makers that use the same nomenclature and dimensions. Check the shaft dimensions and housing details before committing to a replacement. If you send the code or the measurements you have, our team can point you to a suitable equivalent.
Quotes are simple: send the full ZUCT code by WhatsApp or email and we will come back to you quickly. If the size you need is not in front of you, just give us the shaft diameter and we will quote the matching option.

Frequently asked questions
- What does the suffix in ZUCT201-8 tell me?
- The number after the hyphen is the shaft size in inches. In this case -8 means a 1/2 inch shaft; -9 is 9/16 inch and -10 is 5/8 inch. Getting this right is what makes the unit fit your shaft.
- Is the insert bearing part of the unit?
- Yes. The PEER ZUCT is supplied as a mounted unit with the insert bearing already seated in the take-up housing, so the two parts are matched from the start. You mount it on the shaft and fasten it to the structure.
- How do I know the ZUCT housing suits my application?
- Check the shaft diameter, the load involved and the working conditions. The ZUCT is built for tensioning duty on chain or belt drives. If anything is unclear, send your equipment details by WhatsApp and we will help you decide.
