Shaft Adaptor Sleeves

A shaft adapter sleeve is a mechanical component used to facilitate the mounting of bearings with a tapered bore onto a cylindrical shaft.

This sleeve allows for easy and precise bearing installation and removal, providing a secure fit without the need for additional machining or modifications to the shaft. The adapter sleeve typically includes a nut and lock washer or locking device to ensure the bearing is firmly seated and to prevent axial movement during operation.

Shaft adapter sleeves are commonly used in heavy-duty applications such as in mining, construction equipment, conveyors, and industrial machinery. Their ability to simplify the mounting process and accommodate a variety of shaft sizes makes them an essential tool in maintenance and repair operations, ensuring reliability and efficiency in bearing performance.
