Rexnord 5000 series tensioner units are mounted assemblies that pair a bearing with a metal housing and an adjustment mechanism. They maintain correct tension on conveyor belts, drive chains, and belts, compensating for wear and stretch. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this line and can suggest equivalents for different shaft sizes and mounting configurations.

The part number begins with the letters ZHT followed by a numeric sequence that indicates size and mounting variant. For instance, ZHT135415 and ZHT135500 share the 135 prefix but differ in the final digits, which specify shaft diameter and fastening type. Codes such as ZHT145507 or ZHT155515 show how the first block changes with load capacity and the incorporated bearing size. To select the correct unit, provide the full code from the nameplate or equipment drawing.

These tensioner units are found in belt conveyors, bucket elevators, sorting belts, and packaging lines. They are common in food, cement, mining, port, and agricultural plants, particularly in bucket elevators and screw conveyors. They also appear in road machinery and material handling equipment where chain or belt tension must be adjusted frequently. The 5000 series is widely used for these tasks because of its robust construction and ability to absorb misalignment.

Selection depends on shaft diameter, radial and axial loads, and the working environment. In dusty, wet, or washdown conditions, a variant with reinforced sealing is advisable. Use the lubrication specified for the internal bearing and renew it according to the duty cycle. During mounting, check alignment and leave enough adjustment travel to tension without forcing the structure. A misaligned tensioner shortens bearing and belt life.

When replacing a tensioner unit, interchangeability between brands depends on mounting dimensions and shaft diameter. A similar code is not sufficient: compare hole spacing, center height, and fastening type. MR Industrial Accessories can identify a compatible alternative from the 5000 series or another equivalent line. For special configurations, we provide a quote.
