Adapter Sleeves

Adapter and withdrawal sleeves are used to facilitate mounting and dismounting of Bearings. In the absence of such sleeves, the Bearings would have to be mounted directly on the shaft and this will cause significant problems in mounting and dismounting. Also the use of sleeves allows the shaft to be machined to broader tolerances thus saving costs.
However this requires that the sleeves must be made to close material specifications as well as accurate machining tolerances. No wonder it is said that a significant % of bearing failures are attributed to faulty design of associated components, including sleeves.
Antimu follows International standards in their sleeves manufacturing.
Apart from the metric sizes, Antimu can also supply inch sizes and its variations, as per American standards etc. The normal sizes vary from size 4 to size 500. Special sleeves can also be made as per customer requirements.
The adapter sleeves come complete with lock nuts and lock washers. The large sizes have oil injection holes drilled axially for using suitable equipments.
