Stainless bushings are corrosion resistant, preventing rust buildup to improve 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 mounting width and has a split taper for a good clamp to shafts. The bushing is made of steel for greater strength and shock resistance than cast iron. It really is keyed to the shaft to prevent the shaft from rotating in the bushing, in fact it is interchangeable with taper lock bushings from different manufacturers. This taper lock bushing can be used in automobiles, construction gear, agricultural machinery, and kitchen appliances, among others. Bushings are cylindrical parts utilized to mount pulleys, sheaves, sprockets, or other components to drive shafts for the tranny of mechanical power. The majority of bushings are split and also have a tapered outside surface so they’ll 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 steel. Bushings are found in automobiles, construction devices, and machine tools, amongst others. Ever-Power’s manufactures bushings, pulleys, couplings, and electronic 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 left on the mating areas may cause improper installation.
Note: Usually do not lubricate mating surfaces.
2. Being careful never to damage bore or hubs, slide shaft into pulley.
3. Slide bushings onto shaft and into hubs. Oil thread stage 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 hand tighten screws in each bushing somewhat so that bushings are snug in hubs.
5. Tighten screws alternately and evenly in one bushing only until all screws are extremely tight. Use a bit of pipe on the wrench to
increase leverage. See table on the trunk for wrench torque.
Avoid excessive wrench torque to prevent harm to the threads. Then use a hammer against much steel or bronze bar held
against bushings. Hammer 1st next to the screw farthest from the bushing split and hammer on the bushing reverse 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 every screw. Then hammer on each side of the bushing split. Make certain the surfaces on both sides of the split are actually.
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 make sure the top on both sides of the split are also. 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 that 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-mounted design with no protruding parts providing protected locking and elimination of wobble. Furthermore, Dodge Taper-Lock bushings are available with an optional Gemstone D integral key in well-known sizes for a far 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 Crucial for Added Worth and Convenience
Materials obtainable in sintered steel, 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 – short hex key – no puller reuired.
Listed needed hub diameter is definitely for reference only. Severe conditions may necessitate larger hub and in some cases a slightly smaller sized hub may be satisfactory. Inquire about specific application.
Make use of a tapered or QD bushing from Ever-Power with sheaves, pulleys, sprockets and many other power tranny applications. Flanged quick-disconnect bushings include a completely split style to help provide easy set up and disassembly. A tapered bushing with straight edges uses an internal screw to greatly help drive the bushing into the shaft, while a split taper has a flange and an integral on the bushing to 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 size. For example, product number 1008 includes a max bore of just one 1.0″ and a total amount of 0.8″
Inch bore sizes are specified with the complete inch followed 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 match flush into tapered bushing sprockets and or pulleys. The bushing contacts and wedges inward, gripping the shaft and bore of the sprocket. Bushings have an 8° taper, are constructed with steel and have a black oxide coating.
Gates Taper-Lock bushings are accustomed to mount pulleys, sprockets and sheaves on shafts. The durable stainless steel construction is ideal for meals and beverage applications or where noncorrosive sprockets are had a need to prevent rust.
