Take-up ball bearing units consist of an insert bearing and a housing, and are compliant with ISO standards, North American standards, and Japanese Industrial Standards (JIS), as required by many industrial applications.
In contrast, take-up units for the SKF Food Line are not compliant with these standards and are therefore considered as not standardized.
The take-up ball bearing unit assortment comprises insert bearing series and designs, with the main differences between the take-up units being the housing design, the locking method onto the shaft, the sealing solution, and the options for end covers and back seals.
Explore the variety of take-up units and possible combinations available in the product details below.
Take-up units are typically mounted in take-up frames and are connected by an adjustment screw.

More robust than typical deep groove ball bearings, they are highly customizable with the possible combination of many different components. This results in up to 10 000 possible configurations! Find the optimum configuration to deliver the kind of high performance you need – whether that’s exceptional durability, for example, or lower friction.


Designed especially for wind turbine generators, SKF Quiet Running deep groove ball bearings significantly reduce noise levels and structural resonance. They are less sensitive to variable operating conditions, can increase bearing service life and extend relubrication intervals.
