B&B Hx1-3/8 C45 Steel / Black Oxide Split Taper Bushing 1-3/8 Inch Bore Hx1-3/8

Taperlock bushings from B & B Manufacturing provide a true clamp fit on shafts, equivalent to a shrink fit, while keeping sprocket hubs narrow to minimize length-thru-bore dimension. This design allows for shaft mounting close to bearings, reducing the center of the load dimension and preventing issues with highly overhung loads. Suitable for applications where precision and reliability are crucial, such as in heavy industry, construction, and mining equipment. By reducing wear and tear on bearings and shafts, these bushings increase equipment lifespan and performance, making them an essential component for demanding machinery and applications.

Top product features:

• Taperlock bushings keep sprocket hubs narrow so the length-thru-bore dimension is less significant.
• The left-justified hub allows shaft mounting close to bearings keeping the center of the load dimension small.
• Taperlock bushings are split through the flange and gradual taper to provide a true clamp fit on the shaft that is the equivalent of a shrink fit.

Top product applications:

• Taperlock bushings can be used in applications where a high degree of precision and accuracy is required, such as in precision machinery and equipment.
• Taperlock bushings are suitable for use in high-speed applications, such as in conveyor systems and power transmission equipment.
• Taperlock bushings can be used in applications where a high degree of strength and durability is required, such as in heavy-duty machinery and equipment.
