Product Overview: The H 3038 Adapter Sleeve
The H 3038 is a high-quality adapter sleeve designed for mounting bearings with a tapered bore onto a 190mm cylindrical shaft. As a crucial component in our H 3000 Series, this sleeve facilitates a secure and precise fit, simplifying the installation and dismounting process. Adapter sleeves are the most commonly used components for locating bearings on a shaft, as they can be used on plain shafts without the need for special machining like shoulders or lock nut threads. The H 3038 assembly, which includes a corresponding lock nut and lock washer, provides a reliable solution for a wide range of industrial applications.
Key Features of the H 3038 Sleeve
- Easy Mounting: Allows for straightforward installation of tapered bore bearings onto cylindrical shafts.
- Secure Fit: Ensures tight, concentric gripping of the bearing on the shaft, reducing vibration and enhancing stability.
- Versatile Use: Can be used on plain or stepped shafts, eliminating the need for expensive shaft machining.
- Complete Assembly: Typically supplied with a high-quality lock nut (e.g., KM 38) and lock washer (e.g., MB 38) for a full mounting solution.
- Durable Construction: Manufactured from high-grade steel to withstand high loads and ensure long service life.
- Precision Engineered: Features a slotted design and an external taper to match the bearing bore, guaranteeing accurate positioning.
Common Applications
- Industrial Fans and Blowers: Provides a stable mounting solution for fan shafts, ensuring smooth and reliable operation.
- Conveyor Belt Pulleys: Used to secure bearings on pulley shafts in material handling and conveyor systems.
- Agricultural Machinery: Essential for mounting bearings in equipment like combines, balers, and tillers.
