Product Overview: H 222 Adapter Sleeve
The H 222 is a high-quality adapter sleeve from our H 200 Series, designed to facilitate the mounting of bearings with a tapered bore onto cylindrical shafts. Specifically, this sleeve allows a bearing with a 110 mm tapered bore, such as the 22222 Spherical Roller Bearing, to be securely fitted onto a 100 mm diameter shaft. As a crucial component in our Adapter Sleeves collection, the H 222 provides a simple, reliable, and cost-effective method for locating bearings on smooth or stepped shafts.
This adapter sleeve assembly includes the slotted sleeve, a corresponding KM 22 lock nut, and an MB 22 lock washer. The sleeve is pushed into the bearing's tapered bore, and tightening the lock nut secures the entire assembly firmly in position. This method simplifies installation and dismounting, making it a preferred choice in a wide range of industrial applications.
Key Features of the H 222 Adapter Sleeve
- Simplified Mounting: Enables easy and secure mounting of bearings with a tapered bore on cylindrical shafts.
- Complete Assembly: Supplied with a precision-matched lock nut (KM 22) and lock washer (MB 22) for a secure fit.
- Cost-Effective: Eliminates the need for specially machined stepped shafts, allowing the use of standard commercial shafting.
- Easy Installation & Dismounting: The split sleeve design simplifies both the fitting and removal processes, reducing maintenance time.
- Precise Fit: Manufactured to tight tolerances to ensure accurate and concentric positioning of the bearing.
