Bushed / Taper lock sprocket
The taper lock bush can accurately fix the shaft’s hub in the axial center. When used with taper lock sprockets, they provide the advantage of faster installation and better alignment than the keyed shaft to hub connections while using less space. The bushings of these sprockets are installed in the sprocket hub to achieve a thin profile. The same sprocket can be used for different shaft diameters; Select a compatible taper lock bushing with the required hole size.

- Clean up and remove the oil stain on the shaft surface, and install the sprocket together with the tapered bushing at a proper position
- When using the key, first install the key into the keyway
- According to the torque shown in the table below, gradually tighten the hexagon socket screws with the hexagon socket torque wrench (dn911)
- After the load runs for some time (about half an hour), check and ensure that the screw still works under the appropriate tightening torque;
- To avoid ash, all gaps shall be filled with grease.
