Product Overview: H 30/600 Adapter Sleeve
The H 30/600 is a high-precision adapter sleeve designed for mounting bearings with a tapered bore onto cylindrical shafts with a 560mm diameter. As a crucial component in our H 3000 Series of Adapter Sleeves, it provides a simple, reliable, and cost-effective method for securely locating bearings. The sleeve's split design and tapered outer surface create a strong interference fit when driven between the bearing and shaft, ensuring concentricity and preventing slippage under heavy loads. This assembly typically includes a corresponding lock nut and lock washer to firmly secure the bearing in its axial position.
Adapter sleeves like the H 30/600 eliminate the need for complex and expensive stepped shafts, allowing bearings to be positioned at any point along a smooth shaft. This versatility makes them indispensable in heavy industrial applications where robust and serviceable mounting solutions are paramount. Explore our comprehensive range of Sleeves to find the perfect solution for your machinery.

Benefits of Using the H 30/600 Adapter Sleeve
- Enhanced Reliability: Creates a rigid and precise connection between the bearing and shaft, improving the overall reliability of the machinery.
- Simplified Maintenance: Allows for straightforward dismounting of bearings for inspection, maintenance, or replacement, reducing downtime.
- Increased Bearing Life: Proper mounting with an adapter sleeve ensures correct internal clearance and load distribution, maximizing the service life of the bearing.
- Versatile Positioning: Bearings can be located at any position on a shaft, offering greater design flexibility.
- Reduced Costs: Eliminates the need for special shaft shoulders, keyways, or other expensive machining operations.
- Improved Operational Safety: The secure locking mechanism prevents the bearing from loosening on the shaft, even in high-vibration environments.
