The SEALMASTER USTAE5000A is a take-up style mounted bearing unit that keeps proper tension in chain and belt drives. It mounts on a shaft and lets you adjust position to offset stretch or wear in the drive. MR Industrial Accessories supplies this SEALMASTER line.

Break down the USTAE5000A code to understand what you are ordering. USTAE marks the take-up housing family with mounted bearing. The 5000 gives the housing size, and the final A denotes a construction variant. In references like USTAE5000A-203 and USTAE5000A-207, the last three digits (203, 207) set the shaft diameter the inner bearing is bored for. Always quote the full code so the housing and insert match.

These units appear in food processing, cement, mining, paper and material handling. Typical installations include belt conveyors, bucket elevators, conveyor belts and chain drives where elongation needs compensation, plus milling equipment, mixers and agricultural machinery. Their job is to hold steady tension, which helps prevent chain skip or belt slip and reduces premature component wear.

When selecting a take-up housing, check shaft diameter, sealing type for the environment (dust, moisture, washdown) and lubrication method. The USTAE5000A series mounts on shafts within a specified tolerance, and alignment should be verified at installation to avoid axial loads. Use the lubrication specified by the manufacturer and make sure the radial shaft seal seats correctly. If you need help, MR Industrial Accessories can point you to a compatible alternative.

Take-up housings with mounted bearings from different brands may interchange when housing dimensions, shaft diameter and locking type match. A similar code is not enough: compare critical dimensions and the locking system. When asking about interchangeability, send the original code and a photo of the part. We can then offer the SEALMASTER option or the alternative that fits best.
