  • F.A.Q: Speedi-Sleeves

    The quickest, smartest way to repair worn shafts. From scored to restored in less than 5 minutes. Speedi-Sleeve,® manufactured to precise specifications by SKF, is a thin wall shaft repair sleeve which requires no change in seal size after repair of shaft.


    2. How are Speedi-Sleeves removed? - Top

    Speedi-Sleeves can be removed in a number of ways depending upon personal preference and/or shaft configuration.Suggested methods are:
    1. The application of heat will cause the sleeve to expand sufficiently to permit removal.
    2. A pair of wire cutters may be effective to “rip” or tear the sleeve from the shaft, by starting at or near the flange using a twisting motion.
    3. With the flange removed, the sleeve may be stretched by employing a small ball-peen hammer to “peen” one or more lines across the full width of the sleeve.
