Product Overview: The H 3064 Adapter Sleeve
The H 3064 is a high-quality adapter sleeve designed for mounting bearings with a tapered bore onto cylindrical shafts with a 300mm diameter. As a crucial component in our Adapter Sleeves collection, the H 3064 simplifies the installation process, allowing for the use of standard commercial shafts without the need for expensive machining or shouldering. This sleeve is part of the robust H 3000 Series and is supplied complete with a corresponding lock nut and lock washer, ensuring a secure and reliable fit for demanding industrial applications.
Adapter sleeves are essential bearing accessories that facilitate easy mounting and dismounting of bearings. The H 3064's slotted design and tapered exterior work in conjunction with the lock nut to firmly clamp the bearing's inner ring onto the shaft, providing precise positioning and preventing axial movement. This makes it an indispensable solution for machinery where reliability and ease of maintenance are paramount.
Key Features of the H 3064 Adapter Sleeve
- Complete Mounting Solution: Supplied as a set including the sleeve, a lock nut, and a lock washer for secure fastening.
- Facilitates Easy Installation: Allows bearings with a tapered bore to be mounted quickly and accurately on cylindrical shafts.
- Accommodates Shaft Tolerances: Can be used on shafts with wider diameter tolerances compared to bearings with cylindrical bores.
- Precise Axial Positioning: Enables the bearing to be positioned at any point along a plain shaft.
- High-Quality Construction: Manufactured from durable steel to withstand high loads and ensure long service life.
- Slotted Design: The sleeve is slotted to allow for effective clamping onto the shaft when the lock nut is tightened.
Common Applications
- Industrial Gearboxes: Used to secure bearings on transmission shafts, ensuring stable gear alignment.
- Conveyor Belt Pulleys: Provides a reliable mounting method for large bearings in conveyor systems.
- Large Fans and Blowers: Essential for mounting bearings in industrial ventilation equipment where shafts can be long and un-shouldered.
- Mining and Construction Machinery: Withstands the harsh conditions and heavy loads found in crushers, screens, and earth-moving equipment.
- Pulp and Paper Processing: Used in rollers and drums where secure bearing location is critical for operational efficiency.
- Steel Mill Equipment: Ideal for applications in rolling mills and continuous casting machines.
Benefits of Using the H 3064 Sleeve
- Cost-Effective Assembly: Eliminates the need for specially machined shaft shoulders, reducing overall manufacturing costs.
- Simplified Maintenance: Greatly simplifies the process of both mounting and dismounting bearings, reducing downtime.
- Enhanced Reliability: Provides a secure, 360-degree grip on the shaft, ensuring the bearing is firmly locked in its operational position.
- Increased Versatility: Allows for more flexibility in machine design and shaft selection.
- Improved Bearing Performance: A correctly mounted bearing using an adapter sleeve operates more efficiently and has an extended service life.
- Full Interchangeability: Manufactured to industry-standard dimensions, making it easy to source and replace.
