## ⚙️ Key Features

-   Precision guide diameter and concentricity
-   Controls axial movement of the mating component
-   Wear-resistant running surface
-   Designed for the original bore and installation depth

## 🔌 Function

Guides and supports the mating shaft, plunger, fastener or moving component so it remains aligned through its working travel.

## ⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

-   Excessive radial clearance
-   Scoring or galling of the bore
-   Cracking or deformation
-   Binding of the guided component
-   Uneven wear caused by misalignment

## 🛠️ Service Notes

-   Check the sleeve and the part that runs in or on it for scoring, ovality, corrosion and pick-up; renew both if either is worn, since a worn pair will never locate correctly
-   Clean the bore and the housing before fitting and remove any burrs or corrosion that would stop the sleeve going fully home
-   Press or drive the sleeve in square with a tool that bears on its end face rather than on its bore or edge, and seat it fully against its shoulder
-   Where the sleeve carries lubricant or a seal, make sure any oil hole lines up, and renew the adjacent seal or O-ring at the same time
-   Check that the shaft or fastener it guides moves without binding once the sleeve is home
