Product Overview: The H 3092 Adapter Sleeve
The H 3092 Adapter Sleeve is a precision-engineered component from our H 3000 Series, designed to facilitate the mounting of bearings with a tapered bore onto cylindrical shafts. Specifically engineered for a 440mm shaft diameter, this sleeve allows for a secure and concentric fit, simplifying the installation and dismounting process. It is an essential part of our Adapter Sleeves collection and a crucial accessory for various industrial applications.
Adapter sleeves are the most commonly used components for locating bearings on a shaft, as they can be used on plain or stepped shafts. The H 3092, complete with its corresponding lock nut and lock washer, ensures that bearings such as spherical roller bearings and self-aligning ball bearings are firmly secured, preventing axial movement and ensuring optimal performance. This method is cost-effective, reliable, and allows for wider shaft tolerances compared to other mounting techniques.
Key Features of the H 3092 Sleeve
- Simplified Mounting: Allows bearings with a tapered bore to be easily mounted on smooth or stepped cylindrical shafts.
- Secure Fit: Provides a strong, reliable interference fit between the bearing and the shaft, preventing slippage under load.
- Precision Machining: Manufactured to strict tolerances to ensure accurate concentricity and balance, reducing vibration.
- Slotted Design: The sleeve is longitudinally slotted to facilitate tightening and ensure a firm grip on the shaft.
- Complete Assembly Component: Designed to be used with a corresponding lock nut and lock washer (sold separately) for a complete and secure mounting solution.
- High-Quality Material: Constructed from durable steel to withstand high mounting forces and operational stresses.
