Taper Bushes
Taper Bushes
Taper Bushes, combined with other SAMT taper bored products, makes the power transmission installation and removal process more cost effective and efficient.
- Over 500 Metric and Imperial bore sizes
- Manufactured from fine grain GG22 - 25 Cast Iron (Thin walled 1008-2012 from C45 steel, 3535 – 5050 from GGG40 casting)
- Eliminates the need for costly re-boring.
The Taper bush is designed to give rapid assembly and dismantling of the pulley and other transmission equipment with no special tool requirement except hexagonal key. The large range of finished bores available ensures that an immediate assembly can be made thus avoiding costly factory down-time. The bushes are machined with keyways in accordance with British Standard specifications. This is in addition to clamping screws which, in many cases, are sufficient to meet the required torque. Fastening by taper bushes allows the removal of any clearance between hub and bore so that fretting corrosion is eliminated.
