Product Overview: The H 3056 Adapter Sleeve
The H 3056 is a high-quality adapter sleeve designed for mounting bearings with a tapered bore onto cylindrical shafts with a 260mm diameter. As a crucial component in our H Series of Adapter Sleeves, it provides a simple, reliable, and cost-effective method for securing bearings, allowing for the use of standard commercial shafts and simplifying the overall assembly process. The sleeve's tapered design, when used with the supplied lock nut and lock washer, ensures a tight, concentric fit, preventing slippage and enhancing the operational stability of heavy-duty machinery.
Adapter sleeves like the H 3056 are indispensable in applications where precise bearing location on a plain shaft is required. They facilitate easy installation and removal, protecting the shaft from wear and damage during maintenance. Explore our comprehensive range of Sleeves and Bearing Accessories to find the complete solution for your mounting needs.
Key Features of the H 3056
- Simplified Mounting: Allows for easy and secure installation of bearings with a tapered bore onto plain or stepped shafts.
- For 260mm Shafts: Specifically engineered to fit a 260mm diameter cylindrical shaft.
- Complete Assembly: Supplied as a complete set with a corresponding lock nut and lock washer for a secure fit.
- Precision Taper: Ensures a strong, concentric grip along the entire shaft, reducing vibration and wear.
- Facilitates Dismounting: The design allows for straightforward removal of the bearing without damaging the shaft.
- Cost-Effective: Eliminates the need for special shaft machining, shoulders, or locking devices, reducing manufacturing costs.
Common Applications
