Description
Product Overview
The Martin split taper bushing is engineered for demanding industrial drive applications. Featuring a solid flange and a double‑split barrel, it delivers exceptional concentricity and a secure grip on the shaft. Constructed from sintered steel, the bushing offers increased strength, wear resistance, and a higher torque carrying capacity compared with standard steel bushings. Dimensions are 9.06 x 6.3 x 7.09 inches and it weighs just 1.05 pounds, making it easy to handle and install.
Usage
Designed for mounting pulleys, sheaves, or sprockets on rotating shafts, this bushing excels in conveyor systems, gear drives, and material handling equipment. It is suitable for manufacturers seeking a durable, low‑maintenance solution in factories, processing plants, and heavy‑duty machinery. The keyed design locks both the shaft and the driven component, preventing slippage under high‑torque conditions.
Why Choose Us
Martin’s reputation for precision engineering ensures each bushing meets strict quality standards. The sintered steel material provides a longer service life, reducing downtime and replacement costs.
