Product Overview: The H 3034 Adapter Sleeve
The H 3034 is a high-quality adapter sleeve designed to mount bearings with a tapered bore onto cylindrical shafts. As a critical component in our Adapter Sleeves collection and a part of the H 3000 Series, this sleeve simplifies the installation process, providing a secure and precise fit for bearings on shafts with a 160mm diameter. Adapter sleeves are the most common components for locating bearings with a tapered bore onto a cylindrical shaft seating, as they can be used on plain or stepped shafts.
The H 3034 facilitates easy mounting and dismounting, which is highly beneficial for maintenance and inspections. It comes complete with a lock nut and a locking device, ensuring the bearing is firmly secured in its operational position. This sleeve is an indispensable accessory for various heavy-duty industrial applications, guaranteeing reliable performance and extending the service life of the machinery.
Key Features of the H 3034 Adapter Sleeve
- Simplified Mounting: Allows for easy installation of tapered bore bearings onto standard cylindrical shafts without the need for special shaft machining.
- Secure Fit: The tapered design ensures a tight interference fit between the bearing and the shaft, preventing slippage under load.
- Complete Assembly: Designed to be used with a corresponding lock nut and lock washer (sold separately) for a complete and secure fastening solution.
- Facilitates Dismounting: Simplifies the removal of the bearing from the shaft, reducing downtime during maintenance.
- High-Quality Material: Manufactured from durable steel to withstand high loads and ensure long-term reliability.
- Versatility: Suitable for use with a wide range of bearings, including self-aligning ball bearings and spherical roller bearings.
