To enable the oil injection method to be used to ease mounting and dismounting,
SKF adapter sleeves having a bore diameter of 140 mm and above can be supplied t
o special order already prepared for oil injection and for sleeves having a bore
diameter of 200 mm and above, this is standard. These adapter sleeves (figure 1
) have an oil duct at the threaded side and an oil distributor groove in the out
side surface. If oil is injected through this duct and groove, an oil film is fo
rmed between the mating surfaces of the bearing and sleeve and the force require
d to mount the bearing is considerably reduced. Details of the thread for attach
ing the oil supply lead to the duct as well as of appropriate hydraulic nuts wil
l be found in the product tables.
<br><br>
In addition to these standard sleeves which are designated OH..H and shown in th
e product tables, SKF produces three more designs which differ in the number and
arrangement of the oil ducts and distributor grooves. Details will be supplied
on request.
