Bushings are created to precise tolerances.
Provides excellent clamping push 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 constructed of steel and can be used for mounting a taper lock pulley, sheave, or sprocket on a drive shaft. It is flush mounted for reduced mounting width and has a split taper for a good clamp to shafts. The bushing is made from steel for greater power and shock 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, among others. Bushings are cylindrical parts used to mount pulleys, sheaves, sprockets, or other components to drive shafts for the transmitting of mechanical power. Many bushings are split and 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 cast iron and steel. Bushings are used in automobiles, construction tools, and machine tools, amongst others. Ever-Power’s manufactures bushings, pulleys, couplings, and electronic engine 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 still left on the mating surfaces could 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 established screws or thread and under mind 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 somewhat 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 trunk for wrench torque.
Avoid excessive wrench torque to prevent damage to the threads. Then make use of a hammer against much steel or bronze bar held
against bushings. Hammer 1st next to the screw farthest from the bushing split and then hammer on the bushing reverse side of
the screw. Avoid hammering near to the OD of the bushing to avoid damage. Functioning toward the split, hammer on bushing on
each side of each screw. Then hammer on each side of the bushing split. Make certain the surfaces on both sides of the split are even.
Screws is now able to be tightened a little more using the specified torque. Continue doing this alternate hammering and screw re-tightening
before specified wrench torque 
no more turns the screws after hammering.
Check to ensure the top on both sides of the split are even. Fill the additional holes with grease to exclude dirt.
Taper-Lock bushings are split through the flange and gradual taper to provide a true clamp match on the shaft that is the equivalent 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 can be found with an optional Diamond D integral type 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
L – Space required to tighten bushing or loosen to eliminate 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 usually for reference only. Severe conditions may necessitate larger hub and in some cases a slightly smaller hub may be satisfactory. Inquire about particular 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 design to greatly help provide easy set up and disassembly. A tapered bushing with directly edges uses an interior screw to 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. Pick up the tapered and QD bushings you will need at Ever-Power!
The Taper-Lock bushing size is defiined by 4 digits representing two numbers. The first two digits represent the utmost bore size and the next two digits represent the bushing size. For instance, product number 1008 includes a max bore of 1 1.0″ and a complete amount of 0.8″
” bore sizes are specified with the complete inch followed by the fraction. For instance a 1.5″ diameter bore would 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 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 made of steel and come with a black oxide coating.
Gates Taper-Lock bushings are used to attach pulleys, sprockets and sheaves on shafts. The durable stainless construction is ideal for meals and beverage applications or where noncorrosive sprockets are had a need to prevent rust.
