SKF Bearing Unit, Take-Up Housing Type, 55mm Shaft Diameter, 55.6mm Bearing Width - TU 55 TF

When conveyors and pulleys are slacking off, tighten the belt with this bearing unit from SKF. The housing is shaped to fit in a take-up frame and features a bracket to help you hook up the travel rod and nut. This enables you to slide the bearing unit forward and backward, making it easy to adjust the tension of your equipment. As the housing is made from cast iron housing, it's rigid and strong, so it has no trouble taking the strain of rollers and wheels to a dynamic load rating of 43.6kN. The bearing insert supports these loads to keep your machinery turning efficiently at speeds up to 3,600r/min.
