Product Overview: The AHX 319 Withdrawal Sleeve
The AHX 319 is a high-quality withdrawal sleeve, an essential component from our AHX Series of Withdrawal Sleeves. Specifically designed to mount bearings with a 95mm tapered bore onto a 90mm cylindrical shaft, this sleeve simplifies both the installation and dismounting process. Withdrawal sleeves are used to press a tapered bore bearing onto a shaft until it reaches a secure, fixed position against an abutment, such as a shaft shoulder. The sleeve's primary function is to facilitate the easy removal (withdrawal) of the bearing from the shaft, significantly reducing maintenance time and preventing damage to the shaft or bearing.
Manufactured to precise industry standards, the AHX 319 ensures a reliable and secure fit for demanding industrial applications. As a key part of our Bearing Accessories collection, it provides a cost-effective and efficient method for locating bearings on plain shafts without the need for complex machining.
