Bushings are made to precise tolerances.
Provides excellent clamping force for secure shaft connection.
Available in popular and regular bore sizes.
Stainless bushings are corrosion resistant, preventing rust buildup to increase product life.
This Ever-Power’s size 3030 taper lock bushing with a torque capacity of 24000 in-lbs is made of steel and can be used for installation a taper lock pulley, sheave, or sprocket on a drive shaft. It is flush mounted for reduced installation width and has a split taper for a tight clamp to shafts. The bushing is made from steel for greater strength and shock level of resistance than cast iron. It really is keyed to the shaft to avoid the shaft from rotating in the bushing, in fact it is interchangeable with taper lock bushings from different producers. This taper lock bushing can be used in automobiles, construction apparatus, agricultural machinery, and home appliances, amongst others. Bushings are cylindrical parts utilized to mount pulleys, sheaves, sprockets, or other elements to operate a vehicle shafts for the transmitting of mechanical power. Most bushings are split and also have a tapered outside surface 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 for example cast iron and metal. Bushings are used in automobiles, construction gear, and machine tools, amongst others. Ever-Power’s manufactures bushings, pulleys, couplings, and electronic electric motor controls.
1. Before setting up 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 material. Any particles remaining on the mating areas may 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 point of established screws or thread and under mind of capscrews. Place screws
loosely in the holes that are threaded upon the hub side.
4. Locate shaft in position desired and hand tighten screws in each bushing somewhat so that bushings are snug in hubs.
5. Tighten screws alternately and evenly in one bushing just until all screws are very tight. Use a bit of pipe on the wrench to
increase leverage. See desk on the back for wrench torque.
Avoid excessive wrench torque to prevent harm to the threads. Then make use of a hammer against a heavy metal or bronze bar held
against bushings. Hammer first beside the screw farthest from the bushing split and hammer on the bushing opposing side of
the screw. Avoid hammering near to the OD of the bushing to prevent damage. Working toward the split, hammer on bushing on
each side of each screw. Then hammer on each side of the bushing split. Make certain the areas on both sides of the split are also.
Screws is now able to be tightened a little more using the specified torque. Continue doing this alternate hammering and screw re-tightening
until the specified wrench torque no longer turns the screws after hammering.
Check to make sure the surface 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 suit on the shaft this is the equivalent of a shrink fit.
Dodge Taper-Lock bushings are flangeless for clean, compact application. They are manufactured with an 8° taper and a flush-installed design without protruding parts providing protected locking and elimination of wobble. In addition, Dodge Taper-Lock bushings are available with an optional Gemstone D integral key in well-known sizes for a more precise fit.
Stock sizes obtainable up to 12” shaft diameter
Globally acceptance and availability inch and metric bores
Flush Mounting-No Protruding Parts
Diamond D Integral Key for Added Worth and Convenience
Materials obtainable in sintered metal, cast iron, ductile iron, steel and stainless steel
L – Space required to tighten bushing or loosen to eliminate hub with puller using short hex key.
M – Space required to remove bushing using screws as jackscrews – brief hex key – no puller reuired.
Listed needed hub diameter can be for reference just. Severe conditions may require larger hub and in some cases a slightly smaller sized hub may be satisfactory. Inquire about particular application.
Use a tapered or QD bushing from Ever-Power with sheaves, pulleys, sprockets and several other power transmission applications. Flanged quick-disconnect bushings feature a completely split style to greatly help provide easy set up and disassembly. A tapered bushing with straight edges uses an internal screw to help drive the bushing into the shaft, while a split taper has 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 utmost bore size and the second two digits represent the bushing length. For example, product number 1008 has a max bore of just one 1.0″ and a total amount of 0.8″
In . bore sizes are designated with the whole inch followed by the fraction. For example a 1.5″ diameter bore would be 1-1/2. Metric bore sizes are designated with “MM” following the metric dimension. These bushings are easy 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 constructed with steel and come with a black oxide coating.
Gates Taper-Lock bushings are accustomed to install pulleys, sprockets and sheaves on shafts. The durable stainless construction is ideal for meals and beverage applications or where noncorrosive sprockets are needed to prevent rust.
