This withdrawal sleeve is used to mount and secure bearings with a tapered bore onto a straight shaft, transferring axial force evenly around the shaft during fitting. It has a bore diameter of 120.0 mm and a net mass of 1.777 kg, corresponding to the AHX2324 design in standard execution. The tapered outer surface allows the sleeve to draw the bearing inner ring along the shaft as the locknut is tightened, creating the correct internal clearance without machining a tapered seat on the shaft itself. This makes disassembly straightforward, since the sleeve can be withdrawn using the same mechanical action, without damaging the shaft surface or the bearing bore.
