Taper Lock Bushes
What Is a Taper Lock Bush?
A Taper Lock Bush is a precision-engineered mechanical device used to securely mount pulleys, sprockets, couplings and other power-transmission components onto a shaft. The tapered bore matches the taper of the mounted component, creating a strong, concentric, slip-free connection once tightened.
Taper Lock Bushes provide a secure, concentric way to mount pulleys, sprockets and couplings onto a shaft. Manufactured in precision‑machined cast iron and steel, they offer proven reliability in millions of applications. Available in a full range of metric and imperial bores, with short and standard lengths.
Benefits:
- Easy to install and remove
- no re‑boring required,
- increased maximum bores
- keyless mounting on light‑duty setups
- Ideal for pulleys, sprockets, couplings and general power‑transmission use.
