Product Overview: The H 3280 Adapter Sleeve
The H 3280 is a high-quality adapter sleeve designed for securely mounting bearings with a tapered bore onto a 400mm cylindrical shaft. As a crucial component in our Adapter Sleeves range, it simplifies the installation process, providing a reliable and precise fit for heavy-duty applications. Part of the robust H 3200 Series, this sleeve allows for bearings to be positioned accurately on smooth or stepped shafts without the need for specialized machining. Its design ensures full contact between the bearing bore and the shaft, maximizing stability and operational life.
Manufactured from high-grade steel, the H 3280 adapter sleeve is engineered for durability and consistent performance in demanding industrial environments. It is an essential accessory for a wide range of machinery, facilitating straightforward mounting and dismounting procedures. This sleeve must be used with a corresponding lock nut and lock washer to ensure the bearing is firmly secured in its operational position.
Key Features of the H 3280 Adapter Sleeve
- Shaft Compatibility: Designed specifically for use with 400mm diameter cylindrical shafts.
- Simplified Mounting: Enables easy and quick installation of bearings with a tapered bore onto plain shafts.
- Precise Positioning: Allows the bearing to be located at any position along the shaft for design flexibility.
- Secure Fit: The tapered design, combined with a lock nut, provides a strong mechanical grip that prevents slippage and axial movement.
- Durable Construction: Made from high-strength steel to withstand high loads and harsh operating conditions.
- Slotted Design: Features a longitudinal slit that allows for effective clamping onto the shaft when tightened.
Common Applications
- Mining and Construction: Used in large conveyors, crushers, and vibratory screens where robust shaft mounting is critical.
- Pulp and Paper Mills: Essential for mounting bearings on large rollers in paper machines and processing equipment.
- Industrial Fans and Blowers: Provides a secure mounting solution for large-scale ventilation and air-handling systems.
- Steel and Metal Processing: Applied in rolling mills and heavy manufacturing machinery that operates under extreme loads.
- Power Generation: Utilized in turbines, gearboxes, and other large rotating equipment.
- Marine Engineering: Suitable for propulsion systems and other heavy onboard machinery requiring reliable bearing arrangements.
Benefits of Using the H 3280 Sleeve
- Cost-Effective Assembly: Eliminates the need for expensive, precisely machined steps or shoulders on the shaft.
- Enhanced Machine Reliability: Ensures a concentric grip, which reduces vibration and improves the operational stability of the machinery.
- Ease of Maintenance: Simplifies both the installation and removal of bearings, reducing downtime and labor costs during maintenance.
- Versatility: Allows for the use of standard, commercially available shafts, simplifying inventory and design.
- Improved Bearing Life: Provides uniform support along the entire inner ring of the bearing, ensuring proper load distribution and extending service life.
- Global Standard Compliance: Manufactured to internationally recognized standards, ensuring interchangeability and consistent quality.
