For mounting tapered bore bearings onto plain shafts, the BGL H series adapter sleeve provides a secure, centered fit without needing a shoulder or special machining. Each unit comes complete with the sleeve, lock nut, and either a lock washer or MS lock, which makes installation and removal straightforward. This setup is widely used where the bearing must sit with the right interference for dependable operation.

The H series code combines the letter H with a number for the shaft diameter and, when present, a slash and another number for the sleeve outside diameter. For instance, H30/500, H30/530, and H30/600 are sleeves for different shaft sizes. Suffixes and slashes help match the shaft to the bearing bore quickly. To pick the right one, have the full part number plus the shaft and bearing dimensions ready.

These sleeves appear in many industries across the United States and Latin America, including food processing, cement, steel, paper, mining, and aggregate plants. They are common in gearboxes, conveyors, mills, pumps, fans, and other process equipment where tapered bore bearings are mounted on plain shafts. Their job is to hold the bearing firmly and centered, easing installation and later removal without harming the shaft or bearing.

When selecting a sleeve, confirm the shaft diameter has an h10 tolerance and the bearing bore is tapered. The sleeve is supplied with a lock nut and lock washer or MS lock to fix the axial position. During mounting, lubricate the threads and contact surfaces, then tighten the nut with the proper tool to reach the correct internal clearance. Proper alignment and clean lubrication are essential for long service life.
