PUMP SHAFT SLEEVE
Pump shaft sleeves are used to protect the shaft from corrosion, wear, and damage. Here are some common materials of construction (MOC) for pump shaft sleeves:
Tungsten Carbide Coated Sleeves:
- High wear resistance and corrosion protection
- Suitable for applications in oil, gas, and chemical industries
- Thickness: 0.1-0.5 mm
Stainless Steel (SS):
High corrosion resistance and strength Suitable for chemical, pharmaceutical, and food processing applications Varieties: 304, 316, 410, and 420
Chrome Oxide Coated Sleeves:
High wear resistance and corrosion protection Suitable for applications in oil, gas, and chemical industries Thickness: 0.1-0.5 mm
Ceramic Sleeves:
High hardness and wear resistance Suitable for applications in chemical, oil, and gas industries Varieties: Alumina, Silicon Carbide, and Zirconia
When selecting a pump shaft sleeve material, consider factors such as:
- Fluid properties (corrosiveness, temperature, pressure)
- Operating conditions (speed, load, vibration)
- Shaft material and compatibility
- Maintenance and repair requirements
- Cost and availability
- Industry standards and regulations
