1615 Taper Lock Bushings

Tapered locking bushings have an 8-degree taper to reduce through-hole length. Internal screws hold the bushing in place and give it a thinner profile than flanged bushings. To use a tapered lock bushing, make sure the hub diameter of the assembly matches the shaft hole size. Thorough cleaning of the bushing before installation is critical.
Tapered locking bushings are typically used for tapered assemblies. This flange-like device is used to mount different elements of a transmission, such as chains, belts, pulleys, or gears. The sleeve is manufactured to ISO standards. You will need to order the appropriate tapered lock bushing separately from the hub and axle assembly. The benefits of using tapered locking bushing are numerous.
Tapered lock bushings are 1 of the most common types of flangeless bushings. Bushings of this type are made of precision cast iron. It is computer etched for size identification. High-strength screws attach the tapered portion of the assembly to the hub. This strong connection allows the transmission of high torques. In sprocket installation, tapered lock bushings ensure proper sprocket installation and easy alignment.

Installation

1. Clean all oil, dirt, and paint from the shaft, bushing holes, bushing exterior, and bores of components (sprockets, pulleys, etc.).
2. Insert the bushing into the assembly. Match hole patterns, not threaded holes (each hole is threaded on 1 side only).
3. Thread the set screw or cap screw into the half-threaded hole shown below. Install the assembly on the shaft.
4. Alternately set the torque setting or cap screw* to the recommended torque setting in the table below.
5. Fill all unoccupied holes with grease.

Removal

1. Remove any retaining or cap screws.
2. Insert the set screw or cap screw into the above hole.
3. To reinstall, complete all 5 (5) installation instructions.

Tapered locking bushings can be used in many applications. Mostly, they are used in power transmission components such as pulleys and rollers. The tapered handle allows the bushing to be locked in place without deforming the shaft and is easy to remove. These tapered bushings are available in a variety of shaft bore diameters and are also commonly referred to as QD and Taper-Lock bushings.
The cone sleeve is an important part of the power transmission device. The component is computer etched for dimensional identification. High-strength screws secure the tapered portion of the assembly to the hub and transmit high torque. The tapered bushing also ensures successful sprocket installation and allows for easy alignment.
