Product Overview: The H 2306 Adapter Sleeve
The H 2306 is a high-quality adapter sleeve designed to securely mount bearings with a tapered bore onto a 25mm cylindrical shaft. As a key component in our H 2300 Series of Adapter Sleeves, it provides a simple, reliable, and cost-effective method for locating bearings on smooth or stepped shafts. This sleeve is supplied as a complete set, including the appropriate KM 06 lock nut and MB 06 lock washer, ensuring you have all the necessary components for a secure and precise installation.
Adapter sleeves are the most commonly used components for locating bearings, as they allow for wider shaft tolerances and eliminate the need for special shaft machining. The H 2306 sleeve enables bearings with a 30mm tapered bore to be firmly positioned and easily dismounted, making it an essential part of many industrial assemblies.

Key Features of the H 2306
- Complete Mounting Solution: Supplied with a corresponding lock nut (KM 06) and lock washer (MB 06) for a secure fit.
- Facilitates Easy Mounting: Simplifies the process of mounting tapered bore bearings onto cylindrical shafts.
- Accommodates Shaft Tolerances: Allows for the use of commercial-grade shafts with wider dimensional tolerances, reducing manufacturing costs.
- Precision Engineered: Machined to strict standards to ensure a concentric grip on the shaft and proper bearing alignment.
- High-Strength Material: Constructed from durable steel to withstand high mounting forces and operational loads.
- Slotted Design: Features a longitudinal slit that allows the sleeve to contract and clamp firmly onto the shaft when the lock nut is tightened.
