Product Overview: The H 3036 OH Hydraulic Adapter Sleeve
The H 3036 OH is a high-performance hydraulic adapter sleeve designed for securely mounting bearings with a 180mm tapered bore onto a 160mm cylindrical shaft. As a key component in our Adapter Sleeves range, it is part of the specialized OH 3000 Series, which features integrated oil supply ducts. This hydraulic assist system allows for the easy and precise application of oil pressure between the sleeve and the bearing, simplifying both mounting and dismounting processes for large bearings and preventing damage to the components.
This sleeve is an essential accessory for heavy-duty applications where a reliable interference fit is critical. Supplied complete with a corresponding lock nut and lock washer, the H 3036 OH provides a full mounting solution, ensuring bearings are accurately positioned and firmly secured on the shaft. For applications not requiring hydraulic assistance, the standard H 3036 version is also available.
Key Features of the H 3036 OH Sleeve
- Hydraulic Mounting and Dismounting: Equipped with oil ducts and threaded connections for hydraulic pumps, significantly reducing the force needed for installation and removal.
- Tapered Design: Creates a strong interference fit, ensuring the bearing inner ring is firmly gripped and secured axially on the shaft.
- Complete Assembly: Supplied as a set with a high-precision lock nut and a secure lock washer for a comprehensive mounting solution.
- Precision Engineering: Manufactured to tight tolerances to ensure accurate and concentric seating of the bearing.
- Simplified Shaft Requirements: Allows for the use of smooth, un-stepped shafts, reducing manufacturing costs and complexity.
- High-Strength Steel Construction: Made from durable materials to withstand high mounting forces and operational stresses for a long service life.
Common Applications
- Mining and Quarrying Equipment: Used in crushers, conveyor pulleys, and vibrating screens where large bearings are subject to heavy loads and vibration.
- Pulp and Paper Mills: Ideal for mounting bearings on rollers and cylinders in paper processing machinery.
- Large Industrial Fans and Blowers: Ensures secure mounting of fan rotor bearings, critical for high-speed and continuous operation.
- Marine Propulsion Systems: Used in propeller shafts and gearboxes to facilitate maintenance and reliable performance.
- Steel and Metal Rolling Mills: Essential for mounting large bearings on rollers that operate under extreme pressure and temperature.
- Construction Machinery: Applied in heavy equipment like excavators and cranes for mounting bearings in rotating components.
Benefits of Using the H 3036 OH Sleeve
- Reduced Maintenance Time: The hydraulic feature drastically cuts down the time required for dismounting large bearings, minimizing equipment downtime.
- Prevention of Component Damage: Eliminates the need for hammers or excessive force during mounting and dismounting, protecting the bearing and shaft from damage.
- Enhanced Operational Safety: Provides a more controlled and safer method for handling large, heavy bearings.
- Improved Bearing Performance: Achieves a precise and uniform interference fit, which optimizes the bearing's load distribution and operational lifespan.
- Cost-Effective Shaft Design: Enables the use of commercially available cylindrical shafts, avoiding the expense of custom-machined stepped shafts.
- Reliable and Secure Fastening: Ensures the bearing is rigidly fixed to the shaft, preventing axial movement and maintaining alignment during operation.
