Taper Lock Bushes
What Is A Taper Lock Bush?
A taper lock bush is a mechanical device used to mount pulleys, sprockets, and couplings onto a shaft. This type of locking mechanism uses a tapered bore and a matching taper on the outside of the component to be mounted. The bush is then tightened onto the shaft with a set screw, which locks the bush in place and prevents it from rotating on the shaft.
