Description

BGL HS3040 is a inch adapter sleeve reference, within Bushings and sleeves. Request a quote for HS3040 via WhatsApp or email with the quantity you need; we respond promptly with lead time and equivalents.

The BGL inch adapter sleeve is a mounting component that allows tapered-bore bearings to be secured on plain shafts, without the need for a shoulder or special machining. It is supplied complete with sleeve, nut and lock washer or MS lock. It is made of BGL nodular cast iron of a quality superior to DIN 1563 GJS 500-7, with a carbon steel or stainless steel option. MR Accesorios Industriales sells it in Buenos Aires, Argentina, as exclusive representative of the brand.

The HS series designation is read as a three- or four-digit code that identifies the combination of shaft diameter and bearing bore diameter. For example, HS2340, HS3040 and HS3140 correspond to different standardized inch sizes. The number does not indicate a direct metric measurement, but rather a reference that must be cross-checked with the manufacturer's table to know the shaft diameter and the bearing taper. If you have the part number, send it on WhatsApp and we will quote the exact part.

These sleeves are used in equipment where the bearing must be mounted on a plain shaft and adjusted axially against a shoulder or flange. They are common in gearboxes, conveyors, mills, pumps and agricultural machinery, especially when imported tapered roller bearings are replaced. In Argentina, the sectors that request them most are food, cement, mining and material handling, where the ease of mounting and dismounting without a hydraulic press is a concrete advantage.

To select the correct sleeve, take into account the shaft diameter (maximum tolerance h10), the diameter of the bearing's tapered bore and the type of lock: nut with lock washer or MS lock. Assembly is done by threading the sleeve onto the shaft, placing the bearing and tightening the nut with the appropriate wrench until the recommended internal clearance is achieved. Lubricating the taper and the thread before assembly facilitates sliding and prevents damage. Aligning the assembly is key so that the load is distributed evenly.

As for equivalents, inch adapter sleeves are interchangeable between brands according to the dimensional standard. If the customer brings a part number from another brand, at MR we cross-reference it with the HS series and indicate the compatible reference. We can also quote the exact size based on the shaft and bearing dimensions. Interchangeability depends on keeping the same thread, the same taper diameter and the same type of lock.

To request a quote for your BGL inch adapter sleeve, send the HS part number or the shaft and bearing measurements on WhatsApp. At MR Accesorios Industriales we will reply shortly with the reference you need. If you are looking for a variant that does not appear in the list, write to us with the model and we will quote it.
