A clamping sleeve consists of a
brass tube with slits and a nylon jacket with seals at ends.
Applications:
A slide fit rod in a sleeve can
be locked by applying hydraulic pressure on the outside diameter
of the sleeve. Resistive
force is equal to the product of radial inward force and coefficient
of friction. Sleeves are used in machines, fixtures and
supporting elements.
Advantages:
Small wall thickness enabling the
sleeves to be adopted even where the mounting space is restricted.
Reaction free supporting force.
Installation:
The sleeve should be fitted in D
Ø H7.The Rod diameter should be d Ø g6. The sleeve
should be clamped axially
without any clearance or axial load.
Specifications:
Maximum Op. Pressure -300 bar.
Minimum Op. Pressure - 40 bar.
Note:
Pressurise the sleeve only when rod ( d Ø g6)
is inside, for total length of the sleeve.
