Mounted Ball Bearings
Turner mounted ball bearing units are a practical choice for moderate-load applications where high speed, misalignment tolerance, and easy replacement matter more than maximum load capacity. Replaceable bearing inserts simplify maintenance and help minimize downtime.
Take-Up Units
ST Series
Mounted ball bearing take-up units are designed for use in take-up frames, where the housing slides along guided tracks to reposition the shaft and maintain proper belt or chain tension. The adjustable design allows operators to compensate for belt stretch, chain elongation, and wear over time, which reduces the risk of slip, misalignment, and premature failure. They’re commonly used in head and tail sections of belt conveyors, chain conveyors, and bulk material handling equipment where controlled, periodic tensioning is part of normal operation.
Sliding housing design allows controlled axial movement within the take-up frame for accurate belt or chain tensioning.
Robust housing construction withstands repeated adjustment and operating loads in tensioning applications.
Alignment-stable geometry maintains shaft support as the unit is repositioned.
The Turner Advantage
SAE 52100 steel inner and outer rings deliver consistent hardness, fatigue resistance, and predictable long-term performance.
An anti-rotation device helps prevent outer-ring creep in the housing while allowing self-alignment.
Wider inner races improve shaft contact and help reduce inner-ring cocking under load.
Set screw, eccentric collar, and Tru-Loc concentric locking options accommodate different requirements for holding power, shaft protection, and installation efficiency.
Set screws positioned at 120° with annealed ports balance internal forces, reduce distortion, and help prevent cracking during installation.
Available with Lubrilife permanent lubrication for superior contamination protection and maintenance-free operation.
Steel retainers provide improved thermal and fatigue resistance compared to plastic cage alternatives.
