Take-Up Bearings

Take-up bearings are mounted units that slide inside a take-up frame, letting you tension a conveyor belt or drive chain by moving the shaft with an adjusting screw instead of repositioning the whole drive. They are standard equipment at the tail pulley of bulk and unit handling conveyors.

This collection carries 180+ Turner frame-adjustable take-up units. The unit must match the frame slot width and the shaft diameter, so confirm the frame series and adjustment travel before ordering; in most cases you replace the bearing unit and keep the existing frame.

Most stocked sizes ship same day from our Houston warehouse. For frame styles and sizing help, see the mounted bearings guide, or call (888) 203-2358.
