Product Overview: The AHX 2322 Withdrawal Sleeve
The AHX 2322 is a high-precision withdrawal sleeve designed for mounting bearings with a tapered bore onto cylindrical shafts. Specifically engineered for shafts with a 100mm diameter, this sleeve facilitates the secure positioning of bearings like the 23200 Series Spherical Roller Bearings and allows for easy dismounting. As a vital component in many industrial assemblies, the AHX 2322 simplifies maintenance by enabling bearings to be removed without damaging the shaft or the bearing itself. Its design ensures a tight, reliable fit when pressed against a shaft shoulder or similar fixed component.
Part of our comprehensive range of Withdrawal Sleeves, the AHX 2322 is manufactured from high-quality steel to meet demanding industry standards. This component from the AHX 2300 Series is essential for creating robust and serviceable bearing arrangements in heavy-duty machinery.
