The initial sheave and pulley mounting system developed to facilitate installation and replacement of components.
The QD (Quick Detachable) design provides for both conventional (flange outboard) and invert (flange inboard) installation configurations.
1. Be sure the tapered cone areas 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 arranged screw over key “hand tight” with standard Allen wrench only. Usually do not use excessive force.
4. Slide huge end of sheave or sprocket taper bore into position over cone aligning drilled bolt holes in sheave or sprocket with tapped holes in flange of bushing. Assemble pull-up bolts and lock washers.
Take note: Install M thru S bushings in the hub to ensure that the two 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 desk on back. Usually do not make use of extensions on wrench handles. There should be a gap between your face of the sheave or sprocket hub and the flange of the QD bushing to insure a reasonable cone grip and press fit.
CAUTION: THIS GAP SHOULD NOT BE CLOSED.
Make use of a tapered or QD bushing from Ever-Power with sheaves, pulleys, sprockets and many other power tranny applications. Flanged quick-disconnect bushings feature a completely split style to greatly help provide easy set up and disassembly. A tapered bushing with directly edges uses an interior screw to greatly help drive the bushing into the shaft, while a split taper includes a flange and a key on the bushing to greatly help provide more drive.
QD bushings (inch and metric sizes) possess a flanged style and show a 4° taper with regular or reverse mounting. They are stocked in well-known finished bore sizes and minimal plain bore for customized reboring.
Many people make reference to both types as a “taper lock” because they both use the tapered wedging action to lock to the shaft. The taper bushing, with it’s straight sides, runs on the set screw to operate a vehicle the bushing in to the bore of the component being set up (sheave, sprocket, etc.). Be cautious when setting up these screws. The holes with threads on the bushing are for removal only. Also remember that the appearance of a flange on the outside 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 style includes a split that 
proceeds through the flange. The Metal QD (Quick Disconnect) Type bushing offers versatile and easy set up while providing exceptional holding power. QD Bushings are utilized thought out the industry offering convenience and design flexibility. They are precision machined of quality Metal and are set up by tightening many cap screws. This draws the bushing into the taper bore of the product which compresses the bore of the bushing. QD bushings are easily removed utilizing the cap screws as jack-screws. Dual drilled holes are furnished in QD Bushings permitting mounting of product in the conventional or invert positions. This allows cap screws to become installed through product hub or bushing flange whichever is usually most convenient. A substantial benefit in installation, cap screws are always inserted from the outside where they are easily accessible. QD Bushings can be found from share with all well-known bores within the range of every size bushing.
QD Bushings include 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 required over standard bored-to-size bushings. Quick-Disconnect Bushings are crucial for mounting v-belt drives, synchronous belt drives and roller chain drives.
Our immediate supply chain to Martin Sprockets factories gets a wider range of QD Bushings delivered at the proper time at the right price.
Taper bushing are trusted as well as sprockets, v-belt pulleys, timing pulleys, coupling and other mechanical parts with taper bore connections.
Taper bushing series are constructed with high quality engineered materials with great tolerance. The feature is definitely easy to use and needs no extra alteration. These bushings can match almost all sorts of assemblies and sizes. They will be the best choice in design for mechanical connections.
No costly re-boring: full range of both metric and imperial available.
Standard range suits up to 125mm/5″ shafts & Hub diameter required depends upon the application.
Complete brief reach range available, for compact light-weight assemblies & Clean, Compact Style.
Simple installation and removal.
The original sheave and pulley mounting system developed to facilitate installation and replacement of components.
The QD (Quick Detachable) design offers both conventional (flange outboard) and reverse (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 first. Assemble key.
3. Placement QD bushing on shaft. Tighten arranged screw over key “hand tight” with standard Allen wrench only. Usually do not use excessive force.
4. Slide huge end of sheave or sprocket taper bore into position 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 to ensure that the two 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. Usually do not use extensions on wrench handles. There should be a gap between the encounter of the sheave or sprocket hub and the flange of the QD bushing to insure a satisfactory cone grasp and press fit.
