Our immediate supply chain to Martin Sprockets factories gets a wider range of QD Bushings delivered at the right time at the proper price.
Taper bushing are trusted together with sprockets, v-belt pulleys, timing pulleys, coupling and other mechanical parts with taper bore connections.
Taper bushing series are made from high quality engineered materials with great tolerance. The feature can be easy to make use of and needs no additional alteration. These bushings can match almost all kinds of assemblies and sizes. They will be the best choice in style for mechanical connections.
No costly re-boring: 
complete range of both metric and imperial obtainable.
Standard range matches up to 125mm/5″ shafts & Hub diameter required depends on the application.
Complete brief reach range obtainable, for compact lightweight assemblies & Clean, Compact Design.
Ease of installation and removal.

The original sheave and pulley installation program developed to facilitate installation and alternative of components.
The QD (Quick Detachable) design offers both conventional (flange outboard) and invert (flange inboard) installation configurations.
1. Be certain the tapered cone surfaces of the bushing and the inside of the driven item are clean and free of anti-seize lubricants.
2. Slide QD bushing on shaft, flange end 1st. Assemble key.
3. Placement QD bushing on shaft. Tighten set screw over key “hands tight” with standard Allen wrench only. Usually do not use excessive force.
4. Slide huge end of sheave or sprocket taper bore into placement over cone aligning drilled bolt holes in sheave or sprocket with tapped holes in flange of bushing. Assemble pull-up bolts and lock washers.
Notice: Install M thru S bushings in the hub so that both extra holes in the hub can be found as far as possible from the bushing’s noticed cut.
5. Tighten pull-up bolts alternately and evenly to tightness indicated in torque table on back. Do not use extensions on wrench handles. There should be a gap between your encounter of the sheave or sprocket hub and the flange of the QD bushing to insure a satisfactory cone grip and press fit.
CAUTION: THIS GAP MUST NOT BE CLOSED.
Make use of a tapered or QD bushing from Ever-Power with sheaves, pulleys, sprockets and many other power transmission applications. Flanged quick-disconnect bushings feature a completely split style to help provide easy installation and disassembly. A tapered bushing with directly edges uses an internal screw to greatly help drive the bushing in to the shaft, while a split taper includes a flange and an integral on the bushing to greatly help provide more drive.
QD bushings (” and metric sizes) possess a flanged style and feature a 4° taper with typical or reverse installation. They are stocked in well-known completed bore sizes and minimal plain bore for customized reboring.
Many people refer to both types as a “taper lock” because they both utilize the tapered wedging action to lock to the shaft. The taper bushing, with it’s straight sides, uses a set screw to drive the bushing into the bore of the component getting installed (sheave, sprocket, etc.). Be careful when setting up these screws. The holes with threads on the bushing are for removal only. Also be aware that the looks of a flange externally of the bushing doesn’t indicate it’s a QD style. Split Taper bushing also offers a flange, and the two aren’t interchangeable. The QD design includes a split that proceeds through the flange. The Metal QD (Quick Disconnect) Type bushing offers versatile and easy installation while providing exceptional keeping power. QD Bushings are utilized considered the industry offering convenience and design flexibility. They are precision machined of quality Metal and are set up by tightening a number of cap screws. This draws the bushing in to the taper bore of the product which compresses the bore of the bushing. QD bushings are often removed utilizing the cap screws as jack-screws. Double drilled holes are furnished in QD Bushings permitting mounting of product in the conventional or invert positions. This enables cap screws to end up being installed through product hub or bushing flange whichever can be most convenient. A substantial benefit in installation, cap screws are generally inserted from the exterior where they are easily accessible. QD Bushings are available from stock with all popular bores within the range of each size bushing.
QD Bushings feature a split tapered flange with the split central to the flange and taper. They are applied to sprockets, sheaves, and pulleys where more clamping force is necessary over standard bored-to-size bushings. Quick-Disconnect Bushings are crucial for installation v-belt drives, synchronous belt drives and roller chain drives.
