Product Overview: The H 3136 Adapter Sleeve
The H 3136 Adapter Sleeve is a crucial component for mounting bearings with a 180 mm tapered bore onto a 170 mm cylindrical shaft. As part of the versatile H 3100 Series, this sleeve simplifies the installation process, providing a secure and precise fit without the need for complex shaft machining. It is supplied with a corresponding lock nut and lock washer, which are essential for locking the bearing into its final position on the shaft.
These Adapter Sleeves are the most commonly used components for locating bearings with a tapered bore onto a cylindrical shaft seating. Their split design and tapered outer surface allow for easy mounting and dismounting, making them an economical and reliable choice for a wide range of industrial applications.
