Direct-fit spare parts for screw conveyors limited to three items only: hanger bearings (intermediate), head bearings (drive/tail end), and gear reducers (gearmotors). Built to restore alignment, sealing, and torque so your line runs steady.
What these parts do
Keep the conveyor’s support and drive healthy: hanger bearings support long shafts between sections, head bearings carry end loads at drive/tail plates, and gear reducers set the correct speed/torque.
Key benefits
-
Drop-in replacements for tubular and U-trough conveyors
-
Quiet, low-vibration running after alignment is restored
-
Longer service life with the right bearing materials and correct reducer sizing
-
Minimal downtime thanks to matched bolt patterns and housings
Hanger Bearings (Intermediate)
-
Bushing materials: Bronze (general duty), UHMW (low friction/dry service), hard-iron (abrasive duty)
-
Styles: K-style and F-style, two- or three-bolt hangers
-
Features: replaceable bushings, serviceable pins/fasteners, grease fittings
-
Benefit: reduces shaft deflection on long conveyors; smoother, quieter operation
Head Bearings (Drive/Tail End)
-
Housing options: flanged plate or plummer-block; self-aligning variants available
-
Protection: dust caps and labyrinth/dust covers; accessible grease points
-
Fitment: bolt patterns matched to standard head/tail plates → easy swap-out
Gear Reducers (Gearmotors)
-
Types: helical or bevel gearmotor, direct-coupled or shaft-mounted
-
Selection: sized by kW/HP and output rpm to meet required capacity
-
Options: backstop (anti-reverse) and torque limiter; mounting bases and guards
Quick ordering checklist (only these three)
-
Hanger bearing: style (K/F), shaft diameter, bushing material (bronze/UHMW/hard-iron), hanger bolt spacing
-
Head bearing: housing type (flanged/plummer), shaft/journal size, bolt pattern, dust-cover requirement
-
Gear reducer: required kW/HP, output rpm, mounting style (direct/shaft-mounted), output shaft size, need for backstop/torque limiter
Applications
Planned shutdown kits • emergency replacements • retrofit/upgrade of existing conveyors handling cement, fly ash, lime, and fillers.
FAQ
Q: How do I identify my hanger bearing?
A: Check style (K or F), measure shaft diameter and hanger bolt spacing, then pick the bushing material for your duty.
Q: When should head bearings be replaced?
A: Signs include noise, heat, visible play, or recurring seal/dust issues.
Q: How do I size the gear reducer?
A: Provide capacity, screw diameter & pitch, current motor speed, and preferred mounting; we’ll specify kW and rpm to match.
