Over time, contaminants and conditions can cause particles to become trapped inside a lip seal. Particles then form wear grooves on the shaft, eventually leading to seal failure and severe shaft damage. Repairs are expensive, time-consuming and too often, ineffective. With an SKF SPEEDI-SLEEVE, they are also unnecessary.

SKF Speedi-Sleeve Gold is an enhanced version of standard SKF Speedi-Sleeve, offering improved resistance to abrasive wear. Designed for applications where extended sealing system life is needed, SKF Speedi-Sleeve Gold bridges the performance gap between the standard sleeve and expensive custom shaft treatments. A thin, metallic coating applied to the base stainless steel imparts a gold colour and significantly increases durability. SKF Speedi-Sleeve Gold is particularly effective in environments where there are abrasive contaminants, especially when combined with a seal manufactured from the SKF fluoro rubber material, SKF Duralife.

For radial shaft seals to perform efficiently, the condition of the counter face, i.e. shaft surface, is of significant importance. If the counter face is worn or damaged, the seals will no longer be able to fulfil their function; to retain lubricant and to exclude contaminants.

The SKF wear sleeves have been developed to solve the problem of worn seal counter faces at shaft ends and offer the possibility to repair these shafts the easy way. They are simply pushed over the damaged surface enabling the shaft to be re-used within minutes and at a fraction of the cost of traditional reworking. Depending on size, SKF wear sleeves are available in two different designs.
Speedi-Sleeve: Very thin-walled wear sleeve, which allows the same size of seal to be used as the original one. The range of SKF Speedi-Sleeves comprises the standard Speedi-Sleeve for normal operating conditions and the Speedi-Sleeve Gold for harsh operating conditions. They are available for shaft diameters up to 200 mm or 8 inch respectively. LDSLV: Wear sleeves for shaft diameters above 200 mm (8 inch) up to approximately 1 150 mm (45 inch) with 2,4 mm wall thickness. Two designs are available on demand; the LDSLV3 sleeve with a flange and the flangeless LDSLV4 sleeve.
