Long Shaft Sleeve 076 — Essential Shaft Protection for Slurry Pumps

The Long Shaft Sleeve (Basic Code: 076) is a vital replaceable part used in the wet ends of slurry pumps to protect vulnerable areas of the pump shaft. Typically installed at the stuffing box, the shaft sleeve prevents packing from wearing directly on the shaft and shields the shaft from erosion, corrosion, and wear at leakage joints and seal chambers.
Designed for easy replacement, the sleeve offers a cost-effective solution compared to replacing the entire shaft. CNSME provides precision-manufactured sleeves made from wear- and corrosion-resistant alloys or stainless steel, fully interchangeable with OEM standards and suitable for demanding applications in mining, mineral processing, and chemical slurry handling.
To maximize service life, regular inspection for unusual vibration or wear is recommended. Routine maintenance should include oil replacement as specified in the pump manual and removal of the shaft sleeve for wear checks and repacking the stuffing box. Using a shaft sleeve ejector ensures safe and efficient removal during maintenance.
