Product Overview: H 3180 OH Adapter Sleeve
The H 3180 OH is a high-performance adapter sleeve designed for mounting bearings with a 400 mm tapered bore onto a 380 mm cylindrical shaft. As a key component in our Adapter Sleeves collection, this sleeve is part of the robust OH Series, which is specifically engineered for hydraulic mounting and dismounting. The inclusion of oil supply ducts and distribution grooves allows for the application of oil injection, significantly reducing the force required for installation and removal, making it ideal for large, heavy-duty applications.
This sleeve assembly, which includes a lock nut and locking device, provides a secure and precise method for locating bearings on a shaft. The H 3180 OH is manufactured to exacting standards to ensure a reliable fit and long service life, facilitating maintenance and enhancing the operational stability of critical machinery. Explore our comprehensive range of Sleeves to find the optimal solution for your bearing mounting needs.
Key Features of the H 3180 OH
- Hydraulic Mounting Enabled: Features integrated oil ducts and grooves for oil injection, simplifying the mounting and dismounting of large bearings.
- Facilitates Use on Plain Shafts: Allows bearings with a tapered bore to be used on standard cylindrical shafts without the need for a locating shoulder.
- Secure and Accurate Positioning: When tightened, the sleeve provides a strong interference fit, securely locking the bearing in the correct axial position.
- Complete Mounting Solution: Typically supplied as a complete assembly with a corresponding lock nut and locking device.
- High-Quality Steel Construction: Manufactured from durable, high-grade steel to withstand high mounting forces and operational loads.
- Precision Machined Taper: Ensures full surface contact between the sleeve and the bearing bore for optimal load distribution.
Common Applications
- Large Industrial Fans and Blowers: Used to mount large rotor bearings securely onto drive shafts.
- Mining and Quarrying Equipment: Essential for mounting bearings in crushers, conveyor pulleys, and vibratory screens where heavy loads and vibrations are present.
- Pulp and Paper Machinery: Facilitates the installation and maintenance of bearings in large rollers and cylinders.
- Steel Rolling Mills: Provides reliable mounting for roll neck bearings in demanding, high-temperature environments.
- Marine Propulsion Systems: Used for mounting bearings on propeller shafts and in large gearbox assemblies.
- Power Generation Turbines: Ensures secure and precise mounting of main rotor bearings in wind and hydroelectric turbines.
Benefits of Using the H 3180 OH
- Simplified Installation and Removal: The hydraulic oil injection method dramatically reduces mounting and dismounting times and minimizes the risk of damage to the bearing or shaft.
- Reduced Maintenance Downtime: Faster and safer maintenance procedures lead to increased machinery uptime and productivity.
- Enhanced Operational Safety: Eliminates the need for heavy striking tools like sledgehammers during installation, creating a safer work environment.
- Extended Bearing and Shaft Life: Proper and secure mounting prevents fretting corrosion and shaft damage, prolonging the life of associated components.
- Cost-Effective Solution: Allows for the use of less expensive plain shafts instead of stepped shafts, reducing overall manufacturing costs.
- Improved Bearing Performance: Ensures the correct internal clearance is achieved after mounting, leading to optimal bearing performance and reliability.
