Product Overview: The AHX 313 Withdrawal Sleeve
The AHX 313 is a precision-engineered withdrawal sleeve designed for dismounting bearings with a tapered bore from cylindrical shafts. Specifically engineered for a 65mm shaft diameter, this component is an essential tool in industrial maintenance and assembly. As part of the AHX 3100 Series, these sleeves are manufactured to exacting standards to ensure a secure fit and reliable performance. Withdrawal sleeves work by being pulled into the bearing bore using a lock nut, which forces the sleeve to contract and release its grip on the shaft, allowing for easy and damage-free removal of the bearing.
As a key supplier of industrial bearings and mechanical parts, we provide high-quality Sleeves that facilitate efficient machinery maintenance. The AHX 313 is crucial for applications where bearings need to be periodically inspected, replaced, or repositioned, minimizing downtime and protecting valuable equipment like shafts and bearings from damage during the dismounting process.
Features of the AHX 313 Sleeve
- Precise Dimensions: Manufactured for a 65mm shaft, ensuring perfect compatibility with corresponding bearings.
- Simplified Dismounting: Specifically designed to make the removal of tapered-bore bearings a straightforward and safe process.
- Slotted Design: Features a full-length slot that allows the sleeve to compress for easy removal from the shaft.
- High-Strength Material: Constructed from durable, high-quality steel to withstand the forces exerted during dismounting and allow for reuse.
- Smooth Surface Finish: Precision ground to reduce friction, preventing seizure and damage to the bearing bore and shaft surface.
- Standardized Taper: Features a standard 1:12 taper, making it compatible with a wide range of standard bearings.
Common Applications
- Industrial Fans and Blowers: Used for mounting and dismounting large fan assemblies where maintenance is critical.
- Conveyor Systems: Facilitates the maintenance of pulley and roller bearings in material handling equipment.
- Pumps and Compressors: Enables easy removal of bearings on pump shafts for repair or replacement.
- Mining and Construction Equipment: Essential for heavy-duty machinery where components are subject to high loads and require regular servicing.
