Product Overview: The H 3072 OH Adapter Sleeve
The H 3072 OH is a high-precision adapter sleeve from our OH 3000 Series, designed for securely mounting bearings with a 360 mm tapered bore onto cylindrical shafts. This component is an essential part of our Adapter Sleeves collection, offering a reliable and straightforward method for bearing installation. The 'OH' designation signifies that this sleeve is equipped with oil supply ducts and distribution grooves, facilitating the hydraulic method for easy, damage-free mounting and dismounting. With key dimensions of 340 mm bore diameter, 420 mm outer diameter, and 215 mm width, it ensures a robust and precise fit for demanding applications.
As a leading supplier of industrial mechanical parts, we ensure our H 3072 OH sleeves are manufactured to the highest standards, providing excellent performance in heavy-duty environments. This sleeve simplifies assembly, allowing for the use of commercially available shafts and reducing the need for complex machining.

Features of the H 3072 OH Adapter Sleeve
- Hydraulic Mounting/Dismounting: Equipped with oil ducts and grooves for easy oil injection, significantly simplifying installation and removal.
- Secure Bearing Location: Enables bearings with a tapered bore to be firmly positioned on a smooth or stepped cylindrical shaft.
- Compensates for Shaft Tolerance: The split sleeve design can accommodate minor variations in shaft diameter, ensuring a tight fit.
- Complete Assembly: Typically supplied with a corresponding high-precision lock nut and locking washer to secure the bearing in place.
- High-Strength Material: Constructed from durable, high-quality steel to withstand high mounting forces and operational loads.
- Precision Machined: Engineered with tight tolerances to ensure accurate and concentric seating of the bearing.
Applications of H 3072 OH Sleeves
- Heavy Industrial Gearboxes: Used to mount large gears and bearings securely onto main shafts.
- Pulp and Paper Machinery: Ideal for mounting bearings on long rollers where thermal expansion is a factor.
- Mining and Construction Equipment: Essential for crushers, conveyors, and excavators where robust mounting is critical.
- Marine Propulsion Systems: Secures bearings on propeller shafts and in rudder assemblies.
- Large Fans and Blowers: Provides a reliable method for mounting bearings in industrial ventilation systems.
- Steel Rolling Mills: Used for mounting bearings on the rolls that handle extreme loads and temperatures.
- Power Generation: Applied in turbines, generators, and other large rotating equipment.
Benefits of Using the H 3072 OH Sleeve
- Simplified Installation: The sleeve allows bearings to be mounted on shafts without the need for shoulders, keyways, or special machining.
- Reduced Maintenance Time: The oil injection feature drastically cuts down the time and effort required for dismounting, minimizing machine downtime.
- Prevents Damage: Hydraulic dismounting eliminates the need for hammers or pullers, preventing damage to the bearing, shaft, and housing.
- Enhanced Reliability: Provides a full 360-degree grip on the shaft, ensuring a more rigid and reliable assembly than other mounting methods.
- Cost-Effective Solution: Allows for the use of less expensive, straight cylindrical shafts instead of stepped shafts.
- Increased Bearing Life: A proper and secure fit reduces vibration and fretting corrosion, contributing to a longer operational life for the bearing.
