Why should my bearing sit firmly on a shaft?
Bearings need to stay in one place and securely wrap around a shaft to support efficient rotation. Loose parts cause friction, noise and and can lead to machine damage.
How wide is this adapter sleeve?
It's only 37mm wide, so you can easily use it to locate a bearing on shorter shafts.
