Product Overview: The H 314 Adapter Sleeve
The H 314 is a high-quality adapter sleeve designed to facilitate the mounting of bearings with a 70mm tapered bore onto a 65mm cylindrical shaft. As a crucial component in our Adapter Sleeves collection, it provides a simple, reliable, and cost-effective method for securing bearings without the need for a specially machined shaft shoulder. This sleeve, part of the popular H 300 Series, ensures a tight, concentric fit, simplifying both installation and dismounting processes.
The H 314 assembly includes the slotted sleeve, a corresponding lock nut, and a lock washer, providing a complete solution for various industrial applications. By using an adapter sleeve, machinery can be assembled more efficiently, and maintenance becomes significantly easier, reducing downtime. Explore our comprehensive range of Sleeves to find the perfect mounting solution for your equipment.
Key Features of the H 314
- Simplified Mounting: Allows for easy installation of tapered bore bearings onto cylindrical shafts.
- Secure Fit: Ensures a strong and reliable interference fit between the bearing and the shaft when the lock nut is tightened.
- Complete Assembly: Typically supplied with a lock nut (KM 14) and lock washer (MB 14) for a full mounting solution.
- Versatile Use: Can be used on both plain and stepped shafts, offering flexibility in machine design.
- Precision Machined: Manufactured to precise tolerances to guarantee accurate and concentric positioning of the bearing.
- Facilitates Dismounting: The design simplifies the process of removing the bearing from the shaft for maintenance or replacement.
Common Applications
- Industrial Machinery: Used extensively in conveyor systems, industrial fans, and large blowers where shafts require secure bearing support.
- Agricultural Equipment: Ideal for mounting bearings in harvesters, tractors, and other machinery operating in demanding conditions.
- Mining and Construction: Provides robust mounting for bearings in crushers, screens, and conveyor pulleys.
- Pulp and Paper Mills: Suitable for rollers and processing equipment that require reliable and easily serviceable bearing arrangements.
- Power Transmission: Commonly found in plummer blocks, gearboxes, and large electric motors.
- Textile Machinery: Ensures stable and precise operation of rotating components in spinning and weaving machines.
Benefits of Using the H 314 Adapter Sleeve
- Cost-Effectiveness: Eliminates the need for expensive and complex shaft machining, reducing overall manufacturing costs.
- Reduced Maintenance Time: The straightforward installation and removal process significantly cuts down on maintenance hours and equipment downtime.
- Enhanced Reliability: Provides a secure, 360-degree grip on the shaft, preventing fretting corrosion and improving the operational life of the bearing.
- Design Flexibility: Allows for the axial positioning of the bearing at any point along a smooth shaft.
- Shaft Protection: Protects the shaft surface from damage that could occur with direct press-fitting of bearings.
- Accommodates Shaft Variations: Can compensate for minor deviations in shaft diameter, ensuring a consistently tight fit.
