taper lock bushing

Bushings are created to precise tolerances.
Provides excellent clamping power for secure shaft connection.
Available in popular and standard bore sizes.
Stainless steel bushings are corrosion resistant, stopping rust buildup to increase product life.
This Ever-Power’s size 3030 taper lock bushing with a torque capacity of 24000 in-lbs is constructed of steel and is used for installation a taper lock pulley, sheave, or sprocket on a drive shaft. It really is flush mounted for reduced installation width and has a split taper for a good clamp to shafts. The bushing is constructed of steel for greater power and shock level of resistance than cast iron. It really is keyed to the shaft to avoid the shaft from rotating in the bushing, and it is interchangeable with taper lock bushings from numerous manufacturers. This taper lock bushing can be used in automobiles, construction products, agricultural machinery, and kitchen appliances, amongst others. Bushings are cylindrical parts utilized to install pulleys, sheaves, sprockets, or other components to operate a vehicle shafts for the tranny of mechanical power. Most bushings are split and also have a tapered outside surface area so they will clamp to the shaft when tightened against the tapered bore of the powered component. They are constructed of durable metals such as cast iron and metal. Bushings are found in automobiles, construction tools, and machine tools, among others. Ever-Power’s manufactures bushings, pulleys, couplings, and electronic electric motor controls.
1. Before installing the bushing, polish the next components:
a. Surface of shaft
b. Bore of the bushing
c. Tapered inside diameter of the Taper-Lock hub
d. Tapered outside diameter of the Taper-Lock bushing
Remove all burrs and foreign materials. Any particles remaining on the mating areas could cause improper installation.
Note: Usually do not lubricate mating surfaces.
2. Being careful not to harm bore or hubs, slide shaft into pulley.
3. Slide bushings onto shaft and into hubs. Oil thread stage of set screws or thread and under head of capscrews. Place screws
loosely in the holes that are threaded on the hub side.
4. Locate shaft constantly in place desired and hand tighten screws in each bushing slightly so that bushings are snug in hubs.
5. Tighten screws alternately and evenly in a single bushing just until all screws are extremely tight. Use a piece of pipe on the wrench to
increase leverage. See table on the trunk for wrench torque.
Avoid extreme wrench torque to avoid damage to the threads. After that make use of a hammer against a heavy metal or bronze bar held
against bushings. Hammer 1st beside the screw farthest from the bushing split and hammer on the bushing opposite side of
the screw. Avoid hammering close to the OD of the bushing to prevent damage. Working toward the split, hammer on bushing on
each side of every screw. After that hammer on each aspect of the bushing split. Make certain the areas on both sides of the split are also.
Screws can now be tightened a little more using the specified torque. Repeat this alternate hammering and screw re-tightening
until the specified wrench torque no more turns the screws after hammering.
Check to ensure the top on both sides of the split are actually. Fill the other holes with grease to exclude dirt.

Taper-Lock bushings are split through the flange and gradual taper to provide a true clamp fit on the shaft this is the exact carbon copy of a shrink fit.
Dodge Taper-Lock bushings are flangeless for clean, small application. They are designed with an 8° taper and a flush-installed design with no protruding parts providing protected locking and elimination of wobble. Furthermore, Dodge Taper-Lock bushings can be found with an optional Gemstone D integral type in well-known sizes for a more precise fit.
Stock sizes offered up to 12” shaft diameter
Globally acceptance and availability inch and metric bores
Flush Mounting-No Protruding Parts
Diamond D Integral Crucial for Added Value and Convenience
Materials available in sintered steel, cast iron, ductile iron, steel and stainless
L – Space required to tighten bushing or loosen to remove hub with puller using short hex key.
M – Space necessary to remove bushing using screws as jackscrews – brief hex key – no puller reuired.
Listed necessary hub diameter is usually for reference only. Severe conditions may necessitate bigger hub and in some instances a slightly smaller hub could be satisfactory. Inquire about particular application.
Use a tapered or QD bushing from Ever-Power with sheaves, pulleys, sprockets and several other power tranny applications. Flanged quick-disconnect bushings feature a completely split style to help provide easy installation and disassembly. A tapered bushing with straight edges uses an internal screw to greatly help drive the bushing in to the shaft, while a split taper includes a flange and an integral on the bushing to greatly help provide more drive.

The Taper-Lock bushing size is defiined by 4 digits representing two numbers. The first two digits represent the maximum bore size and the second two digits represent the bushing size. For instance, product number 1008 includes a max bore of 1 1.0″ and a total length of 0.8″
In . bore sizes are specified with the whole inch followed by the fraction. For instance a 1.5″ diameter bore will be 1-1/2. Metric bore sizes are designated with “MM” following the metric dimension. These bushings are simple to install and remove, these bushings fit flush into tapered bushing sprockets and or pulleys. The bushing contacts and wedges inward, gripping the shaft and bore of the sprocket. Bushings possess an 8° taper, are made from steel and come with a black oxide coating.
Gates Taper-Lock bushings are accustomed to mount pulleys, sprockets and sheaves on shafts. The long lasting stainless construction is perfect for meals and beverage applications or where non-corrosive sprockets are needed to prevent rust.
