Product Overview: The H 213 Adapter Sleeve
The H 213 is a precision-engineered adapter sleeve designed for mounting bearings with a tapered bore onto cylindrical shafts. This essential component simplifies the installation process, providing a secure and reliable fit for bearings with a 65 mm bore onto a 60 mm shaft. As part of our extensive H 200 Series, the H 213 is a standard solution for a wide range of industrial machinery, eliminating the need for complex shaft machining. It is supplied complete with the corresponding lock nut and lock washer, ensuring that the bearing is firmly positioned axially on the shaft.
Adapter sleeves are the most commonly used components for locating bearings on a shaft, as they can be used on plain or stepped shafts. The H 213 makes it easy to mount bearings, like the 1213 Self-Aligning Ball Bearing or the 21313 Spherical Roller Bearing, and allows for wider shaft diameter tolerances compared to other mounting methods. Explore our full range of Adapter Sleeves to find the ideal solution for your application.
Features of the H 213 Sleeve
- Complete Mounting Solution: Supplied as a kit with a high-quality lock nut (KM 13) and lock washer (MB 13) for secure fastening.
- Standardized Taper: Features a standard 1:12 taper, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of tapered bore bearings.
- Slit Design: The sleeve is longitudinally slit, allowing for easy contraction and a tight grip on the shaft when the lock nut is tightened.
- High-Quality Material: Manufactured from durable steel to withstand high mounting forces and operational loads, ensuring long service life.
- Simplified Installation: Allows for quick and easy mounting of bearings without the need for special tools or shaft features like shoulders or keyways.
- Facilitates Dismounting: The design also simplifies the process of dismounting the bearing for maintenance or replacement.
Common Applications
- Industrial Fans and Blowers: Used to secure bearings on motor and fan shafts, ensuring smooth and stable operation.
- Conveyor Systems: Ideal for mounting bearings in conveyor pulleys and rollers, where reliability is critical.
- Agricultural Machinery: Widely used in equipment such as harvesters, balers, and tractors to mount bearings on various shafts.
- Pumps and Compressors: Provides a secure fit for bearings in rotating equipment, reducing vibration and wear.
- Mining and Construction Equipment: Suitable for heavy-duty applications where robust and reliable bearing mounting is essential.
- Textile and Printing Machinery: Ensures precise positioning of bearings on rollers and shafts for consistent performance.
- Paper Mills: Used in roller assemblies and other rotating parts of paper manufacturing machinery.
Benefits of Using the H 213 Adapter Sleeve
- Cost-Effective Mounting: Eliminates the need for expensive shaft machining, reducing overall manufacturing and assembly costs.
- Enhanced Versatility: Allows standard bearings to be fitted to shafts with wider tolerances, simplifying design and sourcing.
- Secure and Reliable Fit: Creates a strong interference fit that prevents the bearing's inner ring from spinning on the shaft.
- Improved Bearing Life: Proper mounting with an adapter sleeve ensures correct radial clearance and prevents premature bearing failure.
- Easy Axial Adjustment: The bearing can be accurately positioned at any point along a plain shaft, offering design flexibility.
- Reduced Maintenance Time: The straightforward mounting and dismounting process saves valuable time during installation and maintenance routines.
