Compression sleeves? - andyd - 06 Apr 2014

Hello,

Can somone please tell me the purpose of the "compression sleeve"? Item 13 on the figure below, just behind the nut on the stub axle.

[ATTACHMENT NOT FOUND]

I am replacing rear wheel bearings, and looking at the exploded diagram was wondering if these are ok to be re-used?

Thanks in advance for an answer to a stupid question!

Cheers

a
