How the H-322-E model number is decoded
the KMFE 22 lock nut carries size index 22, matching the bore-code family of the 110 mm seat; the nut engages the M 110x2 sleeve thread over its full width a width-to-bore ratio of 0.70 gives a 77 mm tapered contact length; the longitudinal slit lets the sleeve close down radially, so the grip on the 100 mm shaft is purely frictional for controlled drive-up the catalogue pairs this seat with the HMV 22 E hydraulic nut (size 22); at 2,100 g the sleeve and bearing together are too heavy to seat reliably with a hook spanner alone this sleeve mounts a bearing with a 110 mm tapered bore onto a plain 100 mm shaft; the 145 mm outside diameter and 77 mm width define the tapered seat the bearing is driven onto 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 22 nut on the M 110x2 thread advances 2 mm and takes out roughly 0.167 mm of clearance with a 100 mm shaft this size crosses into the range where the associated HMV 22 E hydraulic nut becomes worthwhile for controlled drive-up H 322 E belongs to the E execution: the KMFE 22 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: 77 mm width on a 110 mm bore, so the bearing lands at the catalogue axial position the KMFE 22 lock nut ship in the kit; controlled drive-up uses the HMV 22 E hydraulic nut rather than a spanner typical applications include woodworking saw and planer spindles, agricultural machinery axle and PTO shafts 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 110 mm bore bearing on a 100 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 22 nut ordering digest — H 322 E: 100 mm plain shaft to 110 mm tapered bore, sleeve 145 mm OD and 77 mm wide, thread M 110x2, supplied with KMFE 22 self-locking nut, drive-up tool HMV 22 E; listed mass is 2,100 g
Typical equipment & failure modes
Common applications
- cement plant kiln and mill trunnion drives
- woodworking saw and planer spindles
- food processing line drive shafts
- quarry conveyor head and tail drums
Known failure patterns
- reusing a stretched locking washer tab invites fatigue failure; the bent tab snaps off and the nut backs off undetected
- 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
- neglecting the catalogue axial displacement value leaves the bearing either loose on the taper or preloaded hot in service
- driving the bearing via the outer ring during mounting loads the rolling elements; force is always applied through the lock nut on the inner ring
Selection pitfalls — read before you substitute
- reusing a stretched locking washer tab invites fatigue failure; the bent tab snaps off and the nut backs off undetected
- misaligning the slit with the load zone or belt-pull direction concentrates stress on the split; orient the slit away from the main 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-322-E adapter sleeve fit?
H 322 E is listed for a 100 mm plain shaft; its tapered bore accepts 110 mm K-suffix bearings, the sleeve measures 145 mm OD and 77 mm wide.
What does the H 322 E designation mean?
H 322 E: H-series metric adapter sleeve in the H3 dimension plan; the code resolves to a 110 mm tapered bore and a 100 mm shaft.
What is supplied with the H-322-E?
Supplied hardware is the KMFE 22 lock nut. Drive-up is done with the HMV 22 E hydraulic nut.
How much does the H-322-E adapter sleeve weigh?
It weighs 2,100 g; the figure is the sleeve-only catalogue mass, with the KMFE 22 nut counted on the same product row but the hydraulic tool ordered separately.
How is the H-322-E mounted on the shaft?
Slide the sleeve onto the 100 mm plain shaft against the abutment, fit the bearing, turn the KMFE 22 nut with a hook spanner until the measured clearance drop matches the table, and lock it via its integral screw.
