How the H-315-E model number is decoded

this sleeve mounts a bearing with a 75 mm tapered bore onto a plain 65 mm shaft; the 98 mm outside diameter and 55 mm width define the tapered seat the bearing is driven onto the OD-to-bore ratio is 1.31: the 98 mm sleeve OD is only 11.5 mm of section beyond the 75 mm seat, leaving room for the bearing outer ring without enlarging the housing bore the 10 mm difference between the 65 mm shaft and the 75 mm nominal seat diameter is bridged by taper contraction as the slit sleeve closes during drive-up, rather than by machining the shaft the seat taper is 1:12, so each millimetre of axial drive-up removes about 1/12 mm of radial clearance; one turn of the KMFE 15 nut on the M 75x2 thread advances 2 mm and takes out roughly 0.167 mm of clearance the sleeve wall is 11.5 mm thick at the small end — 15.3% of the 75 mm bore — thin enough to contract evenly onto the 65 mm shaft while keeping the seat round under the clamping load the 65 mm shaft diameter places this in the medium band, where adapter mounting starts to beat press fits because no heating or pressing equipment is needed on site the E suffix marks the variant supplied with the KMFE 15 nut, which carries an integral locking screw — no separate locking washer is needed, and the nut locks itself on the M 75x2 thread dimensionally this sleeve belongs to the medium-section H 3 range, the default seat for 13..K and 22..K self-aligning ball bearings and 222..K spherical roller bearings; the 98 mm OD and 55 mm width follow the ISO 2982-1 boundary plan for that series the delivery includes the KMFE 15 lock nut, and the HMV 15 E hydraulic nut is the associated drive-up tool typical applications include conveyor pulley and drum bearing seats, pump shafts in water and process plants and industrial fan and blower impeller shafts adapter sleeves earn their place wherever a tapered-bore bearing must sit at any axial position on a plain shaft — here a 75 mm bore bearing on a 65 mm shaft in industrial fan and blower impeller shafts the sleeve lets the designer use a plain, unstepped shaft and still locate the bearing positively; only one shoulder is needed, opposite the KMFE 15 nut full specification chain for H 315 E reads 65 mm shaft / 75 mm seat / 98 mm OD / 55 mm width / M 75x2 / KMFE 15 self-locking nut, drive-up tool HMV 15 E / 820 g

Typical equipment & failure modes

Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute

• the shaft must be within h9 tolerance and free of scoring; an oversize or rough shaft stops the slit sleeve closing down and leaves the grip to the thread alone
• reusing a stretched locking washer tab invites fatigue failure; the bent tab snaps off and the nut backs off undetected
• neglecting the catalogue axial displacement value leaves the bearing either loose on the taper or preloaded hot in service
