The SKF SPEEDI-SLEEVE is a fast and effective way to refinish worn shafts. It's quicker than remetalizing or regrinding, and provides an improved sealing system. The outside surface of an SKF SPEEDI-SLEEVE forms an ideal sealing surface, as many popular regrinding and refinishing techniques can produce a surface that cannot be properly sealed.

To install an SKF SPEEDI-SLEEVE, follow these steps:

Clean the seal counter surface on the shaft and file down any burrs or rough spots.
Measure the diameter where the sleeve will be positioned on an unworn portion of the shaft, taking three measurements and averaging the readings to ensure the shaft is within the recommended specifications.
Determine the exact position where the sleeve must be placed to cover the seal wear track, and mark the surface accordingly.
For shallow wear grooves, no filling is required. Optionally, a light layer of a non-hardening sealant can be applied to the inside diameter surface of the sleeve.
If the shaft is deeply scored, fill the groove with a powdered metal epoxy-type filler before installing the sleeve.
Place the flange end of the sleeve on the shaft first, then position the installation tool over the sleeve.
Gently tap the center of the installation tool until the sleeve covers the seal worn surface, taking care not to scratch the precision-ground sleeve outside diameter.
If necessary, remove the flange by cutting it perpendicular to the tear-off groove with a metal shear, and then bend and twist it to break it off.
After the sleeve is installed, check for any remaining burrs that could damage the seal.
Lubricate the sleeve with the system medium before installing the seal.
Proceed with the seal installation.

The standard range of SKF SPEEDI-SLEEVE sizes covers shaft diameters from 0.472" to 8" (12 mm to 200 mm), and the thin-walled, 0.011" (0.28 mm) stainless steel sleeves provide a wear-resistant contact surface with a finish of Ra 10 to 20 μin (0.25 to 0.5 μm). No expensive machining or preparation is required before mounting, reducing downtime as the installation takes only a few minutes.
