The Z2 High Torque Transmission Expansion Sleeve is a specialized mechanical locking device designed to provide a secure, backlash-free connection between shafts and hubs in heavy-duty power transmission systems. Engineered for high torque applications, this expansion sleeve is ideal for use in complex steel load-bearing assemblies where precision, reliability, and ease of maintenance are critical.
Key Features and Advantages
High Torque Transmission
The Z2 expansion sleeve is specifically designed to handle significant torque loads without slippage, making it suitable for demanding industrial drive systems.
Precision Positioning
With its concentric clamping mechanism, the sleeve offers excellent axial and radial positioning accuracy, ensuring consistent and vibration-free operation.
Easy Assembly and Disassembly
The structure allows for quick installation and removal without the need for additional machining or welding. This reduces downtime during maintenance or reconfiguration of mechanical systems.
Self-Centering and Backlash-Free
The frictional locking principle ensures uniform contact pressure, eliminating backlash and improving overall performance and service life.
Durable Construction for Complex Loading
Manufactured using high-strength alloy steel, the Z2 sleeve can withstand complex, multidirectional forces commonly encountered in steel processing, rolling mills, and heavy machinery.
Corrosion and Wear Resistance
Surface treatments such as phosphating or zinc coating are available to enhance resistance against corrosion, making the sleeve suitable for use in challenging industrial environments.
Typical Applications
Steel Mills and Heavy Machinery
Ideal for roller tables, gearboxes, and conveyors requiring precise torque transmission under heavy loading conditions.
Pumps and Compressors
Used in drive shaft systems where high-precision alignment and easy maintenance are essential.
Power Transmission Equipment
Supports couplings, sprockets, and pulleys in high-torque and variable load applications.
Automation and Material Handling Systems
Ensures secure and reliable connection points in robotic arms, lifting devices, and conveyor systems.
