SKF AHX 3220 Heavy Duty Adapter Sleeve | 100mm Shaft Mounting for Spherical Roller Bearings
The AHX 3220 Adapter Sleeve is a critical mounting component designed to securely position tapered bore spherical or self-aligning bearings onto plain, cylindrical shafts (smooth or stepped). Engineered from high-strength, precision-machined steel, the AHX 3220 ensures optimal dimensional stability and maximum shaft grip under demanding operational conditions. Its meticulously controlled taper (1:12 standard) facilitates the correct reduction of internal clearance, vital for maximizing bearing service life and preventing premature failure caused by creep or misalignment. This sleeve is supplied complete with the requisite KM 20 lock nut and the corresponding MB 20 lock washer, guaranteeing robust, repeatable, and simplified installation procedures.
Selecting the AHX 3220 significantly reduces installation complexity and minimizes the risk of damage during maintenance, translating directly into reduced total cost of ownership (TCO) and improved machinery uptime. These sleeves are rigorously tested for conformity to international standards, making them the preferred choice for high-impact industrial applications, including large conveyor systems, primary rock crushers, paper mill drying sections, and heavy-duty transmission equipment. Trust the reliability of genuine SKF components to ensure the highest performance integrity of your entire bearing system, even in environments characterized by high vibration and heavy radial loads.
Key Features
Optimized 1:12 Taper for precise internal clearance setting.
Facilitates mounting of tapered bore bearings (e.g., 22220 series) onto plain shafts without stepped shoulders.
Manufactured from high-strength steel to resist deformation and fatigue.
Supplied complete with matching lock nut and washer for guaranteed fitment.
Enhances bearing stability, reducing the likelihood of relative motion between the shaft and the inner ring.
Easy removal and installation minimizes maintenance downtime.
