Product Overview: The H 216 Adapter Sleeve
The H 216 is a high-quality adapter sleeve designed to securely mount bearings with a tapered bore onto a 75mm cylindrical shaft. As a critical component in our Bearing Accessories range, this sleeve simplifies the installation process, allowing for a precise and firm fit without the need for complex shaft machining. Part of the versatile H 200 Series, the H 216 comes complete with a corresponding lock nut and lock washer, providing a complete solution for locating bearings on both plain and stepped shafts.
Adapter sleeves are the most commonly used components for locating bearings with a tapered bore onto a cylindrical shaft seating. They can be used on plain shafts, which require no separate location device, or on stepped shafts with a shoulder or abutment ring. The H 216 is manufactured from high-grade steel to ensure durability and reliable performance in demanding industrial environments.
