SKF has a new range of air-driven hydraulic pumps and oil injectors to mount and dismount a variety of shrink fit mechanical components using the oil injection method. These include couplings, bearings, flywheels, marine propellers and railway wheels.
The THAP series is lightweight and combines portability with power compared to similar air-driven tools and hand operated pumps and oil injectors. This results in considerable savings in time and effort. The solution weighs just 13,5 kg.
SKF’s oil injection method is a simple, efficient and safe method for mounting and dismounting annular components such as bearings, marine couplings and propellers, gears and railway wheels. To suit these varied applications, the new range consists of four tools with hydraulic output pressures varying from 30 MPa to 400 MPa. Thick hydraulic fluids up to 900 mm²/s, typically used with SKF’s oil injection method, can be efficiently handled by the range.
To suit the varied fields of use, a comprehensive range of accessories, including high pressure pipes, connectors, adaptors and pressure gauges, complements the hydraulic pumps and oil injectors. They are also available to order assets, which are supplied complete with the appropriate accessories.
