Product Overview: The H 31/560 Adapter Sleeve
The H 31/560 is a high-quality adapter sleeve designed for securely mounting bearings with a tapered bore onto cylindrical shafts with a 560mm diameter. As a critical component in our H 3100 Series, this sleeve simplifies the installation process, ensuring a tight and reliable fit without the need for complex shaft machining. It is part of our comprehensive range of Adapter Sleeves, which are essential for various heavy-duty industrial applications.
Adapter sleeves are the most commonly used components for locating bearings with a tapered bore onto a cylindrical shaft seating. Their split design allows for easy installation and dismounting. The H 31/560 is supplied complete with a corresponding lock nut and lock washer, providing a full assembly solution for robust and secure bearing arrangements in demanding operational environments.
Features of the H 31/560 Adapter Sleeve
- Precision Machining: Manufactured to tight tolerances to ensure accurate and concentric mounting of the bearing.
- Split Sleeve Design: Features a slit that runs the length of the sleeve, allowing for easy installation and a firm grip on the shaft when tightened.
- Complete Assembly: Typically supplied with a high-quality lock nut and lock washer for secure and reliable fastening.
- Facilitates Easy Mounting: Enables bearings with a tapered bore to be mounted on plain or stepped shafts.
- High-Grade Material: Constructed from durable steel to withstand high mounting forces and operational loads, ensuring long service life.
- Versatile Compatibility: Designed for use with various bearing types, including spherical roller bearings, self-aligning ball bearings, and carb toroidal roller bearings.
