How the H-317-E model number is decoded
the sleeve wall is 12.5 mm thick at the small end — 14.7% of the 85 mm bore — thin enough to contract evenly onto the 75 mm shaft while keeping the seat round under the clamping load the M 85x2 thread spans about 31.5 nut turns across the 63 mm width; each indexed turn is a measurable drive-up step when setting the bearing clearance on the 85 mm seat the annular envelope between 85 mm bore and 110 mm OD is about 3,829 mm² in cross section, which sets the 1,150 g mass at steel density for the 63 mm-long slit bush a width-to-bore ratio of 0.74 gives a 63 mm tapered contact length; the longitudinal slit lets the sleeve close down radially, so the grip on the 75 mm shaft is purely frictional mass 1,150 g is 13.5 g per mm of bore; the sleeve with its KMFE 17 nut forms the complete 63 mm-wide mounting assembly with a 75 mm shaft this size crosses into the range where the associated HMV 17 E hydraulic nut becomes worthwhile for controlled drive-up H 317 E belongs to the E execution: the KMFE 17 nut has an integral grub-screw lock that bears on the sleeve thread, so there is no washer tab to bend and no tab slot to align as part of 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, this size keeps series-standard proportions: 63 mm width on a 85 mm bore, so the bearing lands at the catalogue axial position the KMFE 17 lock nut ship in the kit; controlled drive-up uses the HMV 17 E hydraulic nut rather than a spanner typical applications include woodworking saw and planer spindles, rolling mill and steel plant roll seats and marine winch and deck machinery shafts adapter sleeves earn their place wherever a tapered-bore bearing must sit at any axial position on a plain shaft — here a 85 mm bore bearing on a 75 mm shaft in marine winch and deck machinery 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 17 nut kit identity for this seat: sleeve H 317 E for a 75 mm shaft, 85x110x63 mm taper, M 85x2 thread, KMFE 17 self-locking nut, drive-up tool HMV 17 E, catalogue mass 1,150 g
Typical equipment & failure modes
Common applications
- conveyor pulley and drum bearing seats
- woodworking saw and planer spindles
- industrial fan and blower impeller shafts
- pump shafts in water and process plants
Known failure patterns
- over-driving the taper eliminates bearing internal clearance entirely; clearance reduction must be measured with feeler gauges, not estimated from nut torque
- interchanging nut families (KM vs KMFE, MB vs MS) across executions loses locking reliability even when the thread appears to fit
- neglecting the catalogue axial displacement value leaves the bearing either loose on the taper or preloaded hot in service
- greasing the tapered seat or shaft destroys the dry friction the joint relies on; a lubricated taper can let the whole sleeve spin under load
- mounting without a fixed abutment lets the bearing walk axially; the sleeve needs a shaft shoulder opposite the lock nut

Frequently asked questions
What shaft size does the H-317-E adapter sleeve fit?
H-317-E (H 317 E) mounts on a plain metric shaft of 75 mm and carries a bearing with a 85 mm tapered (K) bore; sleeve OD is 110 mm and width 63 mm.
What does the H 317 E designation mean?
H identifies a standard metric adapter sleeve in the H3 series; the size code encodes the 85 mm tapered bore (bore code × 5 mm). The E suffix means a KMFE lock nut with integral locking device is supplied.
What is supplied with the H-317-E?
The kit contains the KMFE 17 lock nut. The HMV 17 E hydraulic nut is the associated mounting tool.
How much does the H-317-E adapter sleeve weigh?
The listed mass is 1,150 g for the sleeve assembly at 85x110x63 mm — about 18.3 g per millimetre of sleeve width.
How is the H-317-E mounted on the shaft?
Lubricate the M 85x2 thread lightly, screw the KMFE 17 home, then tighten to the catalogue axial displacement while measuring clearance reduction on the 85 mm bearing, and finally bend set the integral locking screw.
