CONVERSION SLEEVE

A conversion sleeve is a mechanical component used to adapt a tool or workpiece to a different size or taper. It is typically a cylindrical sleeve with a tapered or stepped design, allowing it to fit into one size or taper and accept another.

Key features and applications of conversion sleeves:

• Size adaptation: Converts tools or workpieces from one size to another, allowing for greater flexibility in machine tool setups.
• Taper conversion: Adapts tools or workpieces from one taper type to another, such as Morse taper to Weldon shank or HSK to ISO.
• Length extension: Can be used to extend the length of a tool or workpiece.
• Precision: Conversion sleeves are often manufactured to precise tolerances, ensuring accurate alignment and minimal runout.
• Material: Typically made from hardened steel or other durable materials.
