Product Overview: The H 3040 OH Hydraulic Adapter Sleeve
The H 3040 OH is a high-quality hydraulic adapter sleeve designed to securely mount bearings with a 200mm tapered bore onto a 180mm cylindrical shaft. As a key component in our Adapter Sleeves collection, this sleeve is part of the specialized OH 3000 Series, which features integrated oil supply ducts. These ducts facilitate the use of the hydraulic method for mounting and dismounting large bearings, significantly reducing the effort and time required while ensuring a precise and secure fit.
This assembly, which includes a lock nut and a lock washer, simplifies the entire mounting process by eliminating the need for special shaft machining. The H 3040 OH is an essential accessory for heavy-duty applications where reliability and ease of maintenance are paramount. Its robust construction ensures long-term performance in demanding industrial environments.
Key Features of the H 3040 OH
- Hydraulic Mounting/Dismounting: Features oil ducts and grooves that allow oil to be injected, expanding the sleeve for easy installation and removal.
- Complete Assembly: Supplied as a complete set with a precision-engineered lock nut and a secure lock washer.
- Simplified Bearing Location: Allows bearings to be accurately positioned anywhere on a plain shaft without shoulders or special locators.
- Tapered Design: Ensures a strong, concentric grip on the shaft, providing a secure interference fit when tightened.
- High-Quality Material: Manufactured from durable steel to withstand high mounting forces and operational loads.
- Versatile Compatibility: Designed for use with various bearing types, including spherical roller, self-aligning ball, and CARB toroidal roller bearings.
