This Ever-Power’s size 3030 taper lock bushing with a torque capacity of 24000 in-lbs is made of steel and can be used for installation a taper lock pulley, sheave, or sprocket on a drive shaft. It really is flush mounted for reduced installation 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 avoid the shaft from rotating in the bushing, in fact it is interchangeable with taper lock bushings from various manufacturers. This taper lock bushing is utilized in automobiles, construction devices, agricultural machinery, and kitchen appliances, among others. Bushings are cylindrical parts used to install pulleys, sheaves, sprockets, or other components to operate a vehicle shafts for the tranny of mechanical power. Most bushings are split and also have a tapered outside surface so they will clamp to the shaft when tightened against the tapered bore of the driven component. They are made of long lasting metals such as for example cast iron and metal. Bushings are used 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 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 materials. Any particles remaining on the mating areas could cause improper installation.
Note: Do not lubricate mating surfaces.
2. Being careful never 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 to ensure that bushings are snug in hubs.
5. Tighten screws alternately and evenly in one bushing just until all screws are extremely tight. Use a piece of pipe on the wrench to
increase leverage. See desk on the back for wrench torque.
Avoid extreme wrench torque to avoid damage to the threads. After that use a hammer against much steel or bronze bar held
against bushings. Hammer first next to the screw farthest from the bushing split and then hammer on the bushing reverse side of
the screw. Avoid hammering close to the OD of the bushing to prevent damage. Operating toward the split, hammer on bushing on
each side of every screw. Then hammer on each part of the bushing split. Make sure the areas on both sides of the split are even.
Screws is now able to be tightened a bit 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 ensure the top on both sides of the split are actually. Fill the other holes with grease to exclude dirt.

Taper-Lock bushings are split through the flange and gradual taper to supply a true clamp suit on the shaft this 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 secure locking and elimination of wobble. Furthermore, Dodge Taper-Lock bushings are available with an optional Gemstone D integral type in popular sizes for a far 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 Essential 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 brief hex key.
M – Space required to remove bushing using screws as jackscrews – brief hex key – no puller reuired.
Listed needed hub diameter is for reference just. Severe conditions may require bigger hub and in some instances a slightly smaller hub could 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 transmission applications. Flanged quick-disconnect bushings include a completely split design to greatly help provide easy installation and disassembly. A tapered bushing with straight edges uses an interior screw to greatly help drive the bushing into 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 will 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 instance, product number 1008 includes a max bore of just one 1.0″ and a total length of 0.8″
In . 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 specified with “MM” after the metric dimension. These bushings are easy 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 have an 8° taper, are made from steel and come with a black oxide coating.
Gates Taper-Lock bushings are accustomed to mount pulleys, sprockets and sheaves on shafts. The long lasting stainless construction is ideal for food and beverage applications or where noncorrosive sprockets are needed to prevent rust.
