Product Overview: The H 39/560 Adapter Sleeve
The H 39/560 is a high-precision adapter sleeve designed for mounting bearings with a tapered bore onto cylindrical shafts. This essential component simplifies the installation process, allowing a bearing with a 560 mm tapered bore to be securely fitted onto a 530 mm diameter shaft without the need for special shaft machining. As part of our extensive H 3900 Series within the broader Adapter Sleeves collection, the H 39/560 provides a reliable and cost-effective solution for large-scale industrial machinery. The sleeve, along with its accompanying lock nut and lock washer, ensures a tight, concentric fit, preventing slippage and maintaining precise bearing alignment during operation.
Key Features of the H 39/560 Sleeve
- Simplified Bearing Mounting: Facilitates the easy installation of bearings with a tapered bore onto straight cylindrical shafts.
- Secure Fitment: The tapered design, combined with a lock nut, provides a strong and reliable interference fit between the bearing and the shaft.
- Cost-Effective Shafting: Eliminates the need for expensive shaft shoulders, steps, or special machining, allowing the use of commercial-grade shafting.
- Easy Installation & Dismounting: The split sleeve design simplifies both the mounting and removal process, reducing maintenance time and effort.
- Precise Positioning: Allows for the bearing to be accurately positioned at any point along the shaft.
- High-Quality Construction: Manufactured from durable steel to withstand high loads and ensure long-term operational reliability in demanding environments.
Common Applications
- Mining and Quarrying: Used in conveyor pulleys, rock crushers, and vibrating screens where robust bearing mounting is critical.
- Pulp and Paper Mills: Essential for mounting bearings on large rollers and drums in paper processing machinery.
- Industrial Fans and Blowers: Provides secure shaft mounting for large fan assemblies in ventilation and air handling systems.
- Power Generation: Applied in turbines, generators, and large gearboxes to ensure stable and reliable rotation.
- Construction Equipment: Found in heavy machinery like cranes, excavators, and cement mixers.
- Steel Manufacturing: Used in rolling mills and other heavy-duty equipment that operates under extreme loads and temperatures.
- Marine Propulsion: Suitable for propeller shafts and other large-scale marine applications.
Benefits of Using the H 39/560 Adapter Sleeve
- Enhanced Machine Reliability: Ensures the bearing is securely locked onto the shaft, preventing axial movement and improving overall machine stability.
- Reduced Maintenance Costs: The ease of mounting and dismounting bearings reduces labor costs and equipment downtime during maintenance cycles.
- Increased Shaft Life: Protects the shaft surface from damage during bearing installation and removal.
- Improved Bearing Performance: Guarantees correct radial internal clearance and a true concentric fit, maximizing bearing efficiency and service life.
- Versatile Application: Can be used with various bearing types, including Spherical Roller Bearings, that have a tapered bore.
- Simplified Design: Reduces the complexity of machine design by eliminating the need for integral shaft collars or shoulders.
