Product Overview: The H 2314 Adapter Sleeve
The H 2314 adapter sleeve is a precision-engineered component designed for the secure and accurate mounting of bearings with a tapered bore onto cylindrical shafts. As part of our comprehensive H Series and specifically the H 2300 Series of Adapter Sleeves, this essential mechanical part simplifies installation while ensuring robust performance in various industrial applications. With a bore diameter of 65mm for the shaft, an outer diameter of 80mm, and a thickness of 75mm, the H 2314 provides a reliable interface between the bearing and the shaft, eliminating the need for shoulder and nut arrangements on the shaft itself.
Adapter sleeves like the H 2314 are crucial for applications where ease of mounting and dismounting is paramount, and where precise radial and axial positioning of the bearing is required. They are typically secured by a lock nut and lock washer, which press the tapered bore bearing firmly onto the sleeve, creating a tight and stable fit. This design helps to compensate for slight manufacturing tolerances in the shaft, ensuring an optimal interference fit for extended bearing life and operational efficiency.
