ADAPTER SLEEVES
Quick Links
Bearing adapter sleeves provide a secure, customizable way to mount bearings on shafts. At Bearing Revolution, we stock an extensive range of high-quality adapter sleeves to suit any need.
Adapter sleeves are cylindrical with an inner diameter matching the shaft size. The outer diameter fits precisely into the tapered bore of a bearing housing. This eliminates the need to alter or machine the shaft itself. Adapter sleeves can accommodate both plain and stepped shafts up to 260mm wide.
Typical Uses - Adapter Sleeves
- Mounting tapered bore bearings onto cylindrical shafts
- Pillow block applications
- Steel industry, pulp and paper mills, mining, cement plants
- Manufacturing and power transmission systems
- Textile machinery and food processing equipment
- Easier installation alternative to precision-machined shafts
Quality Bearing Adapter Sleeves for Every Application
We carry adapter sleeves in both metric and imperial sizing, with the necessary matching lock nuts and washers included. Hydraulic lock nuts can also be ordered separately if required.
Some common specifications to consider before purchasing a sleeve are:
- Brand
- Inside diameter
- Outside diameter
- Width
- Weight
We stock high-quality budget-friendly and premium adapter sleeves to suit different applications and budgets. All meet rigorous international quality standards for guaranteed performance.
The adapter sleeve sits in the tapered bore of the bearing housing, typically with a 1:12 taper but sometimes 1:30 in the H240 and H241 series. This centers the sleeve on the shaft without any additional mounting provisions needed. Lock nuts can then be used to securely fix the sleeve and bearing onto the shaft. With over 12.5 million bearing-related products in stock, Bearing Revolution can fulfill orders for both common and hard-to-find adapter sleeve configurations. Our expansive inventory includes:
- Popular metric sizes like 55mm, 60mm and 100mm sleeves.
- Larger sleeves exceeding 200mm for specialised applications.
- Various sleeve widths to accommodate different shaft dimensions.
- Major sleeve brands including SKF, FAG, Timken and NSK.
- Budget nylon and composite sleeves for light-duty uses.
- Heavy-duty cast iron, steel and brass sleeves where high performance is critical.
Whatever your application requires - general industrial equipment, heavy machinery, robotics, agriculture, energy, and more - we likely have the adapter sleeve to get the job done.
