Stainless steel bushings are corrosion resistant, avoiding 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 can be used for mounting a taper lock pulley, sheave, or sprocket on a drive shaft. It is flush installed for reduced installation width and has 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 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 numerous manufacturers. This taper lock bushing is utilized in automobiles, construction equipment, agricultural machinery, and home appliances, amongst others. Bushings are cylindrical parts used to attach pulleys, sheaves, sprockets, or other components to drive shafts for the transmitting 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 made of long lasting metals such as cast iron and steel. Bushings are used in automobiles, construction products, 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 surfaces could cause improper installation.
Note: 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 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 hands tighten screws in each bushing somewhat to ensure that bushings are snug in hubs.
5. Tighten screws alternately and evenly in a single bushing just until all screws are very tight. Use a piece 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 make use of a hammer against a heavy steel or bronze bar held
against bushings. Hammer initial next to the screw farthest from the bushing split and then hammer on the bushing opposing 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. After that hammer on each aspect of the bushing split. Make sure the areas on both sides of the split are actually.
Screws can now be tightened a bit 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 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 supply a true clamp fit on the shaft that is the equivalent of a shrink fit.
Dodge Taper-Lock bushings are flangeless for clean, compact application. They are designed 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 are available with an optional Diamond D integral type in popular 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 Value and Convenience
Materials obtainable in sintered metal, cast iron, ductile iron, steel and stainless
L – Space necessary to tighten bushing or loosen to eliminate hub with puller using brief hex key.
M – Space necessary to remove bushing using screws as jackscrews – brief hex key – no puller reuired.
Listed required hub diameter is definitely for reference only. Severe conditions may necessitate bigger hub and in some instances a slightly smaller sized hub may be satisfactory. Inquire about particular application.
Use a tapered or QD bushing from Ever-Power with sheaves, pulleys, sprockets and many other power transmitting applications. Flanged quick-disconnect bushings include a completely split design to greatly help provide easy set up and disassembly. A tapered bushing with straight edges uses an internal screw to greatly 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. Pick up the tapered and QD bushings you need at Ever-Power!
The Taper-Lock bushing size is defiined by 4 digits representing two numbers. The initial two digits represent the utmost 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 designated with the whole inch accompanied by the fraction. For example a 1.5″ diameter bore would be 1-1/2. Metric bore sizes are designated with “MM” after the metric dimension. These bushings are simple to install and remove, these bushings suit 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 accustomed to install pulleys, sprockets and sheaves on shafts. The durable stainless steel construction is well suited for food and beverage applications or where non-corrosive sprockets are had a need to prevent rust.
