Product Overview: The AHX 3222 Withdrawal Sleeve
The AHX 3222 is a high-quality withdrawal sleeve designed for mounting bearings with a tapered bore onto a cylindrical shaft seating of 100mm. As a key component in our Sleeves collection, this part belongs to the AHX 3200 Series of Withdrawal Sleeves. Its primary function is to facilitate the easy dismounting of bearings from a shaft. The sleeve is pressed into the bearing bore, which typically abuts a shaft shoulder, and is secured on the shaft. This design allows for the bearing to be 'withdrawn' from the sleeve, simplifying maintenance and reducing downtime.
As a specialist supplier of industrial mechanical parts, we ensure our AHX 3222 sleeves are precision-manufactured to meet exacting industry standards. They provide a secure and reliable fit, ensuring optimal performance and longevity for your machinery. This sleeve is essential for heavy-duty applications where secure mounting and straightforward dismounting are critical.
Key Features of the AHX 3222
- Simplified Dismounting: Specifically designed to make removing bearings from shafts quick and easy, minimizing maintenance time.
- Secure Fitment: Enables the mounting of bearings with a 110mm tapered bore onto a 100mm cylindrical shaft, providing a solid and reliable assembly.
- High-Quality Material: Constructed from durable steel to withstand high loads and ensure long-term reliability in demanding industrial environments.
- Precision Machining: Manufactured to precise dimensions for a perfect interference fit with both the bearing and the shaft.
- Slotted Design: Features a slit that allows for tight clamping onto the shaft when the bearing is driven up the sleeve's taper.
- Cost-Effective Solution: Offers an economical and effective method for mounting tapered bore bearings without requiring a tapered shaft.
Common Applications
- Heavy Industrial Gearboxes: Used to secure bearings on shafts in large-scale transmission systems.
- Conveyor Pulleys: Facilitates the mounting and maintenance of large bearings in conveyor systems used in mining and logistics.
- Large Fans and Blowers: Ensures stable and reliable operation of bearings in industrial ventilation equipment.
- Mining and Construction Machinery: Ideal for applications where equipment is subject to heavy loads and harsh operating conditions.
- Pulp and Paper Mills: Used in rollers and processing equipment that require frequent bearing maintenance.
- Marine and Offshore Equipment: Provides robust bearing mounting solutions for propulsion systems and deck machinery.
Benefits of Using the AHX 3222
- Reduced Maintenance Costs: The ease of dismounting reduces labor time and the risk of damage to the shaft or bearing during removal.
- Enhanced Operational Reliability: Guarantees a secure and concentric grip on the shaft, preventing bearing slippage and improving machine performance.
- Increased Equipment Uptime: Faster and simpler maintenance procedures mean less downtime for critical machinery.
- Versatility: Allows for the use of standard cylindrical shafts with a wide range of tapered bore bearings, such as the 22222 Spherical Roller Bearing.
- Simplified Assembly: Provides a straightforward method for achieving a precise and secure bearing fit during installation.
- Extended Component Life: Proper mounting with a withdrawal sleeve minimizes wear on both the shaft and the bearing, contributing to a longer service life.
