SS 2525 Stainless Steel Taper Lock Bushing

Stainless steel tapered locking bushings are an excellent choice for industrial applications because they are easy to install and maintain. This type of bushing is designed for machine applications and can be easily applied to gear pulleys and shafts without the use of any special tools. They are available in many different sizes and designs. The following are the main benefits of stainless steel tapered locking bushings. They keep your machine running smoothly and prevent anything that might get plugged into the hub.
Taper-Lock bushings are a tapered assembly bushing. Their keys are designed to fit perfectly in the shaft, while their outer taper matches the bore. Once installed, the bushing tightens when the screw is inserted, providing a secure fit. They are ideal for use in food processing environments because they can withstand high temperatures. These stainless steel tapered locking bushings can handle the rigors of food processing environments.
Another major advantage of stainless steel tapered locking bushings is that they are easy to install. Simply screw the stainless steel tapered bushing into the shaft and tighten the screw with a rubber mallet. Once you have finished installing the stainless steel tapered locking bushing, you will have a high-quality product. Remember to choose the best type for the job at hand. You’ll be glad you did.

Taper Lock Bushing Installation

Taper-Lock bushings are made with 2 sets of holes, the first for removal and the other for installation. The installation hole is generally larger than the disassembly hole, and the size range is 3525 ~ 6050. The number of holes is determined by the bushing size. Then alternately tighten the set screws and remove the bushing. Depending on the size of the bushing, there may be half-threaded holes on the mounting side.
To install the Taper-Lock bushing, you will need to remove the pulley. Use the shaft key to screw the bushing onto the pulley. Install the bushing so that the tapered end mates with the pulley. Tighten the set screw and pull the pulley up onto the bushing. Then, align the flange of the bushing with the threaded hole on the pulley. Tighten the cap screws and make sure they are not too loose to prevent slipping. Lubricant is not necessary but will help.
After installing the Taper-Lock Bushing, it is important to tighten evenly. While the process is relatively simple, it’s important to be careful not to overtighten the bolts, as the bushings are fragile and can come loose with excessive torque. Also, don’t forget to retighten the bolts to the recommended torque level or the bushings may not seat properly.
After removing the hub, you need to clean the tapered lock bushing. This is important because lubricants can break and damage the product. It is best to clean the bushing after 24 hours, otherwise, the bushing may loosen or come off. Then you can tighten the set screws and lock everything in place. Once the tapered lock bushing is installed, you are ready to run the engine.
To install the tapered lock bushing, follow the installation manual carefully. The installation process is illustrated with installation pictures. Installation manuals are the best source of information on the casing installation process. If you’ve ever installed a tapered lock bushing yourself, you know how challenging it can be. You may need to seek professional help to ensure you have the correct bushing installed. Once you’re done installing, you’ll be amazed at how fast the whole process is.
