Key Features of the H 30/530 Sleeve
- Simplified Bearing Mounting: Allows bearings with a tapered bore to be mounted on standard cylindrical shafts, eliminating the need for special shaft shoulders or locating features.
- Secure Fit: The tapered design, combined with a lock nut, ensures the bearing is firmly clamped against the shaft, preventing slippage and axial movement.
- Accommodates Shaft Tolerances: Can be used on shafts with wider commercial tolerances, reducing manufacturing costs.
- Slotted Design: Features a longitudinal slot that allows for easy contraction and a tight grip on the shaft when the lock nut is tightened.
- Durable Construction: Made from high-strength steel to withstand high mounting forces and operational loads.
- Complete Assembly: Typically used with a corresponding lock nut and lock washer to provide a secure and reliable fastening system.
