Having trouble mounting your tapered-bore bearing on a cylindrical shaft? This adapter sleeve from SKF gets the fit right. It's a breeze to use, as you simply slip the unit onto the shaft and set your bearing on it. Then, attach the included lock nut and use a hook spanner to tighten the bearing. Place the lock washer against the nut and slot the tabs into the nut's grooves to make secure installation a cinch.

• Compact dimensions of 36 (L) x 31.75mm (diameter) for installation in tight spaces
• Can be placed in any position on a smooth shaft for versatile assembly

• Wind turbines
• Material handling
• Railways
• Steel mills

This adapter sleeve is compatible with shafts that have either a smooth or a stepped structure, making it a versatile option. When you use it on a stepped shaft, you can combine it with an L-shaped spacer ring to set it in an axial position for quick mounting and dismounting of the bearing.
