Hanger Units
Hanger bearing units are designed to support a shaft which is positioned
at the end of and perpendicular to a supporting pipe on a conveyor.
Typically, the end of the pipe is threaded and mates with the portion
of the hanger bearing housing that extends beyond the circumference
of the bearing. This extended section has been manufactured with a
corresponding threaded female fitting. When mounting, the hanger bearing
unit simply screws onto the threaded pipe and is secured by a lock
nut.
NTN hanger units are manufactured of cast iron and the nomenclature
designation is HB. The NTN mounted unit catalog lists
hanger units for a variety of shaft diameters.
