Product Overview: H 208 Adapter Sleeve
The H 208 is a high-quality adapter sleeve designed for mounting bearings with a tapered bore onto cylindrical shafts with a 35mm diameter. As a critical component in our Adapter Sleeves collection and a part of the popular H 200 Series, this sleeve provides a simple, reliable, and cost-effective method for securing bearings. It allows for bearings to be positioned at any point on the shaft, facilitating easy mounting and dismounting without the need for special shaft machining. This assembly typically includes a corresponding KM 08 lock nut and MB 08 lock washer to securely clamp the bearing's inner ring against the sleeve and shaft.
Key Features of the H 208 Sleeve
- Easy Installation: Simplifies the process of mounting tapered bore bearings onto straight cylindrical shafts.
- Secure Fitment: Creates a strong interference fit between the bearing and the shaft, ensuring reliable operation.
- Complete Assembly: Designed to be used with a KM 08 lock nut and MB 08 lock washer for a full mounting solution.
- Positional Versatility: Allows the bearing to be located at any position along a plain shaft.
- Durable Construction: Manufactured from high-grade steel to withstand operational stresses and ensure longevity.
- Facilitates Dismounting: The design allows for straightforward removal of the bearing for maintenance or replacement.
Common Applications
- Industrial Fans and Blowers: Used to mount bearings on the motor or fan shafts.
- Conveyor Systems: Essential for securing bearings in conveyor rollers and drive pulleys.
- Agricultural Machinery: Widely used in equipment like harvesters, combines, and bailers where robust mounting is required.
- Pumps and Gearboxes: Provides a reliable method for locating bearings on input and output shafts.
- Mining and Construction Equipment: Suitable for heavy-duty applications where components are subject to high loads and vibration.
- Textile and Printing Machinery: Ensures precise and secure bearing location on rollers and shafts.
- General Industrial Machinery: A versatile solution for a wide range of power transmission applications.
Benefits of Using the H 208 Adapter Sleeve
- Cost-Effective Mounting: Eliminates the need for expensive and complex stepped shafts, reducing overall manufacturing costs.
- Simplified Assembly: Reduces installation time and complexity, as no special heating or pressing equipment is required.
- Enhanced Reliability: Provides a secure, concentric grip that prevents fretting corrosion between the shaft and bearing.
- Reduced Maintenance Time: The sleeve system makes it easier and faster to dismount bearings, minimizing machinery downtime.
- Improved Shaft Integrity: Avoids the need for keyways or shoulders on the shaft, which can act as stress concentration points.
- Accommodates Shaft Tolerances: Can be used on commercial-grade shafts with wider diameter tolerances.
