Adapter sleeves

Adapter sleeves secure tapered-bore bearings on cylindrical shafts. They form the mounting connection between the shaft and bearing inner ring; the sleeve itself is neither a plain bearing nor a rolling bearing.

Select the complete designation, manufacturer and specific version. Distinguish shaft diameter d₀ or d₁ from nominal bearing bore d, and check length, thread and mounting space. H-series adapter sleeves have a different function from AH withdrawal sleeves and are not automatically interchangeable.

Check the matching nut, lockwasher or other locking component and supplied contents for the particular product. Driving the bearing up the taper affects internal clearance. Mount and check the arrangement by the procedure specified for the exact bearing and its installation.
