Bushings are made to precise tolerances.
Provides excellent clamping power for secure shaft connection.
Obtainable in popular and regular bore sizes.
Stainless 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 made from steel and is utilized for mounting a taper lock pulley, sheave, or sprocket on a drive shaft. It really is flush mounted for reduced installation width and includes a split taper for a good clamp to shafts. The bushing is made from steel for greater strength and shock level of resistance than cast iron. It is keyed to the shaft to avoid the shaft from rotating in the bushing, in fact it is interchangeable with taper lock bushings from numerous manufacturers. This taper lock bushing can 
be used in automobiles, construction tools, agricultural machinery, and kitchen appliances, among others. Bushings are cylindrical parts utilized to install pulleys, sheaves, sprockets, or other parts to drive shafts for the transmitting of mechanical power. Most bushings are split and 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 made of long lasting metals such as cast iron and metal. Bushings are found in automobiles, construction tools, and machine tools, amongst 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 material. Any particles remaining on the mating surfaces could cause improper installation.
Note: Usually do not lubricate mating surfaces.
2. Being careful never to damage bore or hubs, slip shaft into pulley.
3. Slide bushings onto shaft and into hubs. Oil thread point of arranged screws or thread and under mind of capscrews. Place screws
loosely in the holes that are threaded on the hub side.
4. Locate shaft in position desired and hands tighten screws in each bushing slightly to ensure that bushings are snug in hubs.
5. Tighten screws alternately and evenly in one bushing only until all screws are extremely tight. Use a piece of pipe on the wrench to
increase leverage. See table on the back for wrench torque.
Avoid excessive wrench torque to avoid harm to the threads. After that use a hammer against much metal or bronze bar held
against bushings. Hammer initial beside the screw farthest from the bushing split and then hammer on the bushing opposing side of
the screw. Avoid hammering close to the OD of the bushing to avoid damage. Operating toward the split, hammer on bushing on
each side of each screw. After that hammer on each aspect of the bushing split. Make sure the areas on both sides of the split are also.
Screws can now be tightened a little more using the specified torque. Continue doing this alternate hammering and screw re-tightening
until the specified wrench torque no more turns the screws after hammering.
Check to ensure the surface on both sides of the split are actually. Fill the additional holes with grease to exclude dirt.
Taper-Lock bushings are split through the flange and gradual taper to supply 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 manufactured with an 8° taper and a flush-installed design with no protruding parts providing protected locking and elimination of wobble. In addition, Dodge Taper-Lock bushings are available with an optional Diamond D integral type in well-known sizes for a far more precise fit.
Stock sizes available up to 12” shaft diameter
Worldwide acceptance and availability inch and metric bores
Flush Mounting-No Protruding Parts
Diamond D Integral Important for Added Worth and Convenience
Materials obtainable in sintered steel, cast iron, ductile iron, steel and stainless steel
L – Space necessary to tighten bushing or loosen to remove hub with puller using brief hex key.
M – Space required to remove bushing using screws as jackscrews – short hex key – no puller reuired.
Listed necessary hub diameter is for reference only. Severe conditions may require larger hub and in some instances a slightly smaller sized hub could be satisfactory. Inquire about specific application.
Make use of a tapered or QD bushing from Ever-Power with sheaves, pulleys, sprockets and several other power transmitting applications. Flanged quick-disconnect bushings feature a completely split design to greatly help provide easy installation and disassembly. A tapered bushing with directly edges uses an interior screw to help drive the bushing in to the shaft, while a split taper includes a flange and a key on the bushing to greatly help provide more drive. Grab the tapered and QD bushings you need at Ever-Power!
The Taper-Lock bushing size is defiined by 4 digits representing two numbers. The 1st two digits represent the utmost bore size and the second two digits represent the bushing duration. For instance, product number 1008 has a max bore of just one 1.0″ and a complete length of 0.8″
” bore sizes are designated with the complete inch accompanied by the fraction. For example a 1.5″ diameter bore will 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 made of steel and have a black oxide coating.
Gates Taper-Lock bushings are used to attach pulleys, sprockets and sheaves on shafts. The long lasting stainless construction is ideal for meals and beverage applications or where non-corrosive sprockets are had a need to prevent rust.
