Product Overview: The H 3026 Adapter Sleeve
The H 3026 is a high-quality adapter sleeve from our H 3000 Series, designed to facilitate the mounting of bearings with a tapered bore onto cylindrical shafts with a 125mm diameter. As a crucial component in our Adapter Sleeves collection, the H 3026 provides a simple, reliable, and cost-effective method for securing bearings, allowing them to be positioned at any point along a plain shaft. This assembly, which includes a precision-engineered sleeve, a lock nut (KM 26), and a lock washer (MB 26), ensures a secure fit and simplifies both installation and dismounting procedures, reducing maintenance time and effort.
Key Features of the H 3026
- Complete Mounting Solution: Supplied as a complete set with a slotted sleeve, lock nut, and lock washer for secure and reliable fastening.
- Shaft Compatibility: Specifically designed for mounting bearings on 125mm cylindrical shafts.
- Simplified Installation: The split sleeve design allows for easy installation and removal without the need for special shaft machining or shoulders.
- Precise Bearing Location: Enables accurate positioning of bearings anywhere along the length of a plain shaft.
- High-Quality Material: Manufactured from durable steel to ensure strength, longevity, and consistent performance in demanding industrial environments.
- Enhanced Grip: The tapered design provides a strong, concentric grip on the shaft when the lock nut is tightened, preventing slippage.
