Bushings are created to precise tolerances.
Provides excellent clamping push for secure shaft connection.
Obtainable in popular and regular 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 made from steel and is utilized 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 of steel for greater power and shock resistance than cast iron. It is keyed to the shaft to prevent the shaft from rotating in the bushing, and it is interchangeable with taper lock bushings from different 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 attach pulleys, sheaves, sprockets, or other components to operate a vehicle shafts for the transmitting of mechanical power. The majority of bushings are split and have a tapered outside surface so they’ll clamp to the shaft when tightened against the tapered bore of the driven component. They are constructed of durable metals such as cast iron and steel. Bushings are used in automobiles, construction equipment, and machine tools, among others. Ever-Power’s manufactures bushings, pulleys, couplings, and electronic electric motor controls.
1. Before installing the bushing, polish the following 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: 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 point of set screws or thread and under mind of capscrews. Place screws
loosely in the holes that are threaded upon 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 only until all screws are very tight. Use a bit of pipe on the wrench to
increase leverage. See table on the back for wrench torque.
Avoid extreme wrench torque to avoid harm to the threads. After that make use of a hammer against much steel or bronze bar held
against bushings. Hammer 1st beside the screw farthest from the bushing split and then hammer on 
the bushing opposite side of
the screw. Avoid hammering close to the OD of the bushing to avoid damage. Functioning toward the split, hammer on bushing on
each side of every screw. After that hammer on each side of the bushing split. Make sure the surfaces on both sides of the split are also.
Screws is now able to be tightened a bit more using the specified torque. Repeat this alternate hammering and screw re-tightening
before 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 various other 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, compact application. They are engineered with an 8° taper and a flush-installed design with no protruding parts providing secure locking and elimination of wobble. In addition, Dodge Taper-Lock bushings can be found with an optional Gemstone D integral key in popular sizes for a far more precise fit.
Stock sizes available up to 12” shaft diameter
Globally acceptance and availability inch and metric bores
Flush Mounting-No Protruding Parts
Diamond D Integral Key for Added Value and Convenience
Materials obtainable in sintered metal, 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 – short hex key – no puller reuired.
Listed needed hub diameter is certainly for reference only. Severe conditions may require bigger hub and in some instances a slightly smaller sized hub could 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 feature a completely split design to help provide easy installation and disassembly. A tapered bushing with directly edges uses an interior screw to greatly help drive the bushing in to the shaft, while a split taper has a flange and a key on the bushing to help provide more drive. Grab 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 1st two digits represent the maximum bore size and the next two digits represent the bushing size. For instance, product number 1008 has a max bore of just one 1.0″ and a complete amount of 0.8″
Inch bore sizes are specified with the whole inch followed by the fraction. For instance a 1.5″ diameter bore would be 1-1/2. Metric bore sizes are specified with “MM” after 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 constructed with steel and have 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 food and beverage applications or where non-corrosive sprockets are needed to prevent rust.
