Adjustable chocks SKF Vibracon – The universal adjustable re-useable chock SKF Vibracon is a machinery mounting chock that is easily and accurately adjusted. The chock accommodates the angular difference, up to 4°, between machine and the mounting base without expensive machining of the base or the extra work of installing epoxy resin chocks. The self-levelling
Heaters for mounting Incorrect mounting methods account for 16% of premature bearing failures To reduce the risk of incorrect mounting, SKF helped pioneer the use of portable induction heaters for bearing mounting applications in the 1970’s. Since that time, there have been many advances in technology and SKF has been at the forefront in developing
SKF Drive-up Method Accurate mounting of spherical roller and CARB bearings The SKF Drive-up Method is a well-proven method, unique to SKF, of accurately achieving the adjustment of SKF spherical roller and CARB toroidal roller bearings mounted on tapered seatings. The method incorporates the use of an SKF HMV ..E hydraulic nut fitted with a
SKF Oil Injection Method Makes bearing mounting an easy task The SKF Oil Injection Method allows bearings and other components with an interference fit to be fitted in a safe, controllable and rapid manner. The method does not require keyways to be machined on the shaft, saving valuable time and money in materials and production.
Hydraulic tool accessories A range of accessories has been developed to further facilitate the ease of use of the SKF hydraulic tools range Hydraulic tool accessories High pressure pipes Flexible solutions to connect oil injection equipment. Maximum working pressure 400 MPa (58 000 psi). Flexible high pressure hoses Maximum working pressure up to 150 MPa
Pressures gauges 100 to 400 MPa (14 500 to 58 000 psi) SKF pressure gauges are designed to fit SKF hydraulic pumps and oil injectors. The gauges are all liquid filled and/or equipped with a restriction screw in order to absorb any sudden pressure drop thereby preventing damage. Safety glass and blowout discs are standard
Hydraulic nuts Easy application of high drive-up forces Mounting bearings on tapered seatings can be a difficult and time-consuming job. Using an SKF Hydraulic Nut facilitates easy and quick application of the high drive-up forces required for mounting bearings. Dismounting bearings mounted on either adapter or withdrawal sleeves is also often a difficult and time-consuming
Hydraulic tools for mounting and dismounting SKF has pioneered the use of hydraulic techniques, which have helped to simplify bearing arrangements and facilitate correct and easy mounting. SKF has also developed a comprehensive range of tools and equipment to put these hydraulic techniques into effect. The SKF hydraulic techniques are often the preferred method for
Maintenance products Help your bearing achieve its maximum service life Every bearing has a certain service life potential. However, research has shown that, for various reasons, not every bearing achieves it. Important stages which have a major impact on a bearing service life can be recognised during the bearing’s lifecycle. These stages are mounting, lubrication,
SKF Electronic Steering Input Unit Electronic steering input unit The SKF Electronic Steering Input Unit is a mechatronic solution with integrated Electronic Control Unit (ECU), embedded software and CAN bus interface, which can replace the traditional steering column offering a robust steering input function to be fitted in both electro-hydraulic and electro-mechanic steer-by-wire systems. The
