SKF Speedi-Sleeve provides an alternative to costly repairs for worn or damaged shafts. This thin-walled sleeve, specially developed by SKF, is simply positioned over the relevant part of the shaft and provides a smooth counterface that is optimized for radial shaft seals. Use of SKF Speedi-Sleeve can prevent the need for costly shaft treatments that may involve machining, hardening, plunge grinding or disassembly. SKF Speedi-Sleeve Gold is an enhanced version of standard SKF Speedi-Sleeve, offering improved resistance to abrasive wear.
