Bushings are made 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 used for installation a taper lock pulley, sheave, or sprocket on a drive shaft. It really is flush installed for reduced mounting width and includes a split taper for a good clamp to shafts. The bushing is constructed 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 numerous producers. This taper lock bushing is used in automobiles, construction gear, agricultural machinery, and kitchen appliances, among others. Bushings are cylindrical parts used to attach pulleys, sheaves, sprockets, or other parts to drive shafts for the transmission of mechanical power. Many bushings are split and have a tapered outside surface area so they’ll clamp to the shaft when tightened against the tapered bore of the driven component. They are made of long lasting metals such as cast iron and steel. Bushings are found in automobiles, construction tools, and machine tools, among others. Ever-Power’s manufactures bushings, pulleys, couplings, and electronic engine 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 materials. Any particles still left on the mating areas may cause improper installation.
Note: Usually do not lubricate mating surfaces.
2. Being careful not to harm bore or hubs, slip shaft into pulley.
3. Slide bushings onto shaft and into hubs. Oil thread stage of set screws or thread and under head 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 so that bushings are snug in hubs.
5. Tighten screws alternately and evenly in a single bushing just 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 extreme wrench torque to avoid harm to the threads. Then use a hammer against much metal or bronze bar held
against bushings. Hammer 1st next to the screw farthest from the bushing split and then hammer on the bushing opposite side of
the screw. Avoid hammering near to the OD of the bushing to avoid damage. Operating toward the split, hammer on bushing on
each side of each screw. Then hammer on each part of the bushing split. Make sure the surfaces on both sides of the split are actually.
Screws is now able to be tightened a little more using the specified torque. Repeat this alternate hammering and screw re-tightening
before specified wrench torque no longer turns the screws after hammering.
Check to ensure the surface on both sides of the split are also. 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 that is the exact carbon copy of a shrink fit.
Dodge Taper-Lock bushings are flangeless for clean, small application. They are engineered with an 8° taper and a flush-mounted design without protruding parts providing protected locking and elimination of wobble. Furthermore, Dodge Taper-Lock bushings can be found with an optional Gemstone D integral key in well-known sizes for a more precise fit.
Stock sizes offered up to 12” shaft diameter
Worldwide acceptance and availability inch and metric bores
Flush Mounting-No Protruding Parts
Diamond D Integral Crucial for Added Value and Convenience
Materials available in sintered steel, cast iron, ductile iron, steel and stainless
L – Space required to tighten bushing or loosen to eliminate hub with puller using short hex key.
M – Space necessary to remove bushing using screws as jackscrews – brief hex key – no puller reuired.
Listed necessary hub diameter is certainly for reference only. Severe conditions may necessitate bigger hub and in some instances 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 several other power tranny applications. Flanged quick-disconnect bushings include a completely split design to help provide easy set up and disassembly. A tapered bushing with directly edges uses an internal screw to help drive the bushing into the shaft, while a split taper includes 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 total amount of 0.8″
” bore sizes are specified with the whole inch accompanied by the fraction. For instance a 1.5″ diameter bore would be 1-1/2. Metric bore sizes are specified 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 have a black oxide coating.
Gates Taper-Lock bushings are accustomed to mount pulleys, sprockets and sheaves on shafts. The long lasting stainless steel construction is well suited for food and beverage applications or where noncorrosive sprockets are had a need to prevent rust.
