How the H-317 model number is decoded
this sleeve mounts a bearing with a 85 mm tapered bore onto a plain 75 mm shaft; the 110 mm outside diameter and 63 mm width define the tapered seat the bearing is driven onto the OD-to-bore ratio is 1.29: the 110 mm sleeve OD is only 12.5 mm of section beyond the 85 mm seat, leaving room for the bearing outer ring without enlarging the housing bore 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 KM 17 nut on the M 85x2 thread advances 2 mm and takes out roughly 0.167 mm of clearance 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 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 the 75 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 with the H execution the KM 17 lock nut and MB 17 washer are delivered together — the washer is a single-use element that should be renewed whenever the 85 mm seat is remounted within 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 is the 75 mm shaft step; neighbouring steps keep the same hardware concept while the taper seat grows to 85x110 mm here the delivery includes the KM 17 lock nut and the MB 17 locking washer, and the HMV 17 E hydraulic nut is the associated drive-up tool typical applications include agricultural machinery axle and PTO shafts, pump shafts in water and process plants and paper machine roll and cylinder journals 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 paper machine roll and cylinder journals the sleeve lets the designer use a plain, unstepped shaft and still locate the bearing positively; only one shoulder is needed, opposite the KM 17 nut full specification chain for H 317 reads 75 mm shaft / 85 mm seat / 110 mm OD / 63 mm width / M 85x2 / KM 17 nut with MB 17 washer, drive-up tool HMV 17 E / 1,100 g
Typical equipment & failure modes
Common applications
- woodworking saw and planer spindles
- agricultural machinery axle and PTO shafts
- marine winch and deck machinery shafts
- cement plant kiln and mill trunnion drives
Known failure patterns
- mounting without a fixed abutment lets the bearing walk axially; the sleeve needs a shaft shoulder opposite the lock nut
- reusing a stretched locking washer tab invites fatigue failure; the bent tab snaps off and the nut backs off undetected
- a fretted or corroded shaft seat cannot be rescued by a new sleeve — the thin wall conforms to the damage and clamping force collapses
- misaligning the slit with the load zone or belt-pull direction concentrates stress on the split; orient the slit away from the main load
- interchanging nut families (KM vs KMFE, MB vs MS) across executions loses locking reliability even when the thread appears to fit

Frequently asked questions
What shaft size does the H-317 adapter sleeve fit?
the fit is 75 mm shaft to 85 mm bearing bore via the 1:12 taper; H-317 has a 110 mm outside diameter and a 63 mm overall width.
What does the H 317 designation mean?
the letters give the execution and the digits give the bore: H 317 belongs to H3, fits 85 mm tapered-bore bearings, using a separate lock nut and locking element.
What is supplied with the H-317?
You receive the sleeve plus KM 17 lock nut and MB 17 locking washer. One nut turn on the M 85x2 thread advances 2 mm along the 1:12 taper.
How much does the H-317 adapter sleeve weigh?
1,100 g for the 63 mm-long slit bush — the equivalent of 12.9 g per millimetre of the 85 mm bore.
How is the H-317 mounted on the shaft?
Mount dry and clean: drive the bearing up the 1:12 taper by turning KM 17 on the M 85x2 thread, using the HMV 17 E hydraulic nut for force, verify clearance with feeler gauges, then apply the MB 17 locking washer.
