Product Overview: The H 217 Adapter Sleeve
The H 217 adapter sleeve is a critical mechanical component designed for the secure and precise mounting of bearings with a tapered bore onto cylindrical shafts. As part of our comprehensive H Series Adapter Sleeves, this sleeve provides an effective and reliable method to position and fasten bearings without requiring a stepped shaft, simplifying machinery design and maintenance. With a bore diameter of 85mm, an approximate outer diameter of 105mm, and a width of 85mm, the H 217 ensures a stable and concentric fit for various industrial applications.
Adapter sleeves like the H 217 are indispensable in scenarios where bearings, particularly spherical roller bearings or certain tapered roller bearings, need to be mounted quickly and accurately. They facilitate easy installation and removal, reducing downtime during assembly or replacement. Each H 217 sleeve is manufactured to stringent industry standards, ensuring high precision and compatibility with corresponding lock nuts (KM 17) and lock washers (MB 17), which are essential for its correct operation and securing the bearing in place.
Key Features of the H 217 Adapter Sleeve
- Versatile Mounting Solution: Designed specifically for mounting bearings with tapered bores onto plain cylindrical shafts.
- Easy Installation & Removal: Simplifies the mounting and dismounting process, reducing labor time and complexity.
- High Precision Fit: Ensures a tight, concentric fit between the bearing and the shaft, minimizing run-out and vibration.
- Durable Construction: Made from high-quality steel, offering excellent strength and wear resistance for long service life.
- Standardized Dimensions: Conforms to international standards, ensuring interchangeability and wide compatibility.
- Accommodates Shaft Tolerances: Can compensate for wider shaft tolerances compared to direct shaft mounting.
