Precision Shaft Repair Sleeve 99260
The SKF 99260 is a chromium-plated stainless steel wear sleeve designed to restore sealing surfaces on shafts measuring 66.6 to 66.75 mm. It provides a durable, corrosion-resistant running surface for radial shaft seals in heavy industrial equipment, avoiding the cost and downtime of shaft replacement or re-machining.
Press-Fit Installation Requirements
The sleeve installs by press fit over the damaged shaft journal, requiring a clean, burr-free surface within the 66.6 to 66.75 mm diameter range for proper seating. Its 12.7 mm width on shaft covers the original seal contact zone, while the 77.39 mm flange diameter provides a positive stop. The thin 0.28 mm wall minimises radial space consumption inside the housing bore.
Corrosion Protection and Temperature Rating
The chromium-plated finish protects the underlying stainless steel from oxidative wear and chemical exposure common in industrial environments. This coating extends seal life by maintaining a smooth counter-face texture. The assembly is rated for continuous operation up to 225 degrees Fahrenheit, ensuring reliability in high-temperature process machinery.

Questions about this item
At what temperature does the 99260 sleeve reach its operational limit during sustained use?
The sleeve is rated for a maximum temperature of 225 degrees Fahrenheit, which defines its thermal limit under continuous operation.
How much heat does the sleeve itself generate when installed on a shaft running all day?
The sleeve is a passive stainless steel component with no moving parts or friction surfaces of its own, so it adds negligible heat beyond normal shaft conduction.
What shaft diameter range must the existing shaft fall within for this 99260 sleeve to fit correctly?
The sleeve is designed for shafts measuring between 66.6 mm and 66.75 mm, corresponding to 2.622 to 2.628 inches.
