FAG H309 Adapter Sleeve, Metric, 40mm ID

This FAG adapter sleeve is used to locate rolling element bearings with tapered bores on smooth or stepped cylindrical shafts, and is used with FAG ball and roller bearings. It is made of carbon steel for strength and resistance to wear, and the locking nut allows the bearing to be positioned at any location on a smooth shaft. The adapter sleeve meets Deutsches Institut für Normung standard DIN 5415 for quality assurance. This FAG adapter sleeve is an accessory for use with FAG rolling bearings, which are used in various applications, such as automotive and truck transmissions, agricultural and construction equipment, pumps and compressors, and two-cycle engines, among others.Plain bearings provide low-friction sliding contact for relative motion between parts of a machine. They are the simplest type of bearing, with no rolling elements, and there are three basic types of plain bearings: radial plain bearings (also called sleeve bearings or bushings) to support rotating or reciprocating shafts, thrust bearings (also called washers) to support axial loads on shafts, and linear bearings to support and guide the motion of parts in a straight line. Flanged sleeve bearings have a flange on one end to support axial loads. Spherical plain bearings are radial bearings that allow for angular misalignment of the shaft. Plain bearings are made from durable, low-friction materials such as sintered or cast bronze alloys, plastic, or a combination of a metal shell and a plastic bearing surface. They can be lubricated externally or by a lubricant embedded in the bearing material. Plain bearings are used in automobiles, construction and mining equipment, textile manufacturing equipment, and robotics, among others.FAG manufactures a variety of bearings that meet International Organization for Standardization (ISO) and Deutsches Institut für Normung (DIN) standards for quality assurance. Founded in 1883, FAG is based in Schweinfurt, Germany.What’s in the Box?  Adapter sleeve Locknut Locking washer
