Does it really need to be wider? I've been frustrated with short speedi-sleeves too, but the seal only runs on one little narrow strip and that's all you really need the sleeve to cover. Sometimes it takes care to avoid pushing it on too far. I vaguely recall putting two sleeves on one shaft for some reason or other, probably because it had two seals too far apart. When you're not pushing the sleeve all the way down, sometimes you need to tear off the driving flange, but they're made for that.
