UCTX Take-Up Bearing Units
UCTX is a medium duty series configured around take-up bearing units. Its catalogue definition uses setscrew locking, with individual bore and dimensional variants retained in one model table.
Series Overview
For purchasing and replacement work, the useful decision is the series itself, not a separate web page for every shaft size. The model table therefore stays together so adjacent metric and inch variants can be compared in one place.
Treat the housing format and locking method as the first filter. The broader bearing range is useful when the same shaft size must be checked against another flange, pillow, take-up or insert arrangement. Browse related bearing families.
Series-Level Selection
UCTX is treated as one catalogue series, with individual unit numbers retained inside the dimensional table.
Mounting Form
The primary configuration is take-up bearing units, intended for guided shaft support used where position adjustment or belt/chain tensioning is required.
Locking Logic
The catalogue identifies setscrew locking for this series; confirm the exact row before ordering.
Technical Specifications
This summary deliberately avoids copying isolated dimensions out of context. Family attributes are shown here, and the exact model dimensions stay attached to their original unit numbers in the catalogue reference.

Engineering Drawing
Use the drawing to confirm the mounting envelope before choosing the line item from the catalogue table. Pay particular attention to the shaft centerline, bolt or pilot geometry, overall housing envelope and the dimensions that affect adjacent machine parts.
Applications
Belt conveyor take-up positions
For belt conveyor take-up positions, this series provides the catalogue mounting form shown above. Confirm load, speed, shaft dimensions and service environment for the chosen model.
Bucket elevator or chain tensioning points
UCTX is relevant when bucket elevator or chain tensioning points requires this housing format; verify shaft geometry, mounting interface, operating conditions and environment before final selection.
Adjustable material-handling frames
For adjustable material-handling frames, this series provides the catalogue mounting form shown above. Confirm load, speed, shaft dimensions and service environment for the chosen model.
Catalogue Dimensional Data
Rather than shortening the model list, the page keeps the complete source table visible. This lets engineering and purchasing refer to the same row during selection and quotation.
Selection & Integration
For new equipment, select the housing format before finalizing the shaft detail. For replacement work, reverse the process and measure the existing shaft and frame so the catalogue drawing can be matched directly. In this family, the intended role is guided shaft support used where position adjustment or belt/chain tensioning is required.
| Step | Information To Confirm |
|---|---|
| 1 | shaft diameter |
| 2 | take-up slot or guide geometry |
| 3 | required adjustment/travel position |
| 4 | locking method and lubrication access |
For an RFQ, dimensions and configuration details are reviewed against the selected catalogue line item. Availability, material exceptions and application-specific options should be confirmed for the exact unit before an order is released.
RFQ Support
Confirm The Exact UCTX Configuration
A useful RFQ includes the target model or shaft size, mounting dimensions, quantity and any environment requirement. That gives the quotation review enough information to confirm the catalogue row. Ever Power Netherlands Branch can review the quotation basis against the same reference.
