G Type Split Taper Bushings
G Type Split Taper Bushings are precision-engineered components used to mount pulleys, sprockets, or couplings onto shafts in mechanical power transmission systems. Featuring a double-split barrel and a solid flange, they ensure superior concentricity and a secure grip on the shaft. The 3/4″ per foot taper provides self-locking mechanical strength, reducing slippage. Made from durable materials like sintered steel or ductile iron, they accommodate various bore sizes and include cap screws for easy installation and removal, enhancing versatility and maintenance efficiency.

Advantages of G Type Split Taper Bushings
G Type Split Taper Bushings offer several advantages for mounting pulleys, sprockets, and other components in mechanical systems. Here are the key benefits:
- Secure Shaft Connection: The double-split barrel design ensures a tight grip on the shaft, providing excellent concentricity. This minimizes slippage and maintains alignment, even under high torque, enhancing system reliability and performance.
- Easy Installation and Removal: The split taper design allows for quick mounting and dismounting without requiring extensive disassembly. This reduces downtime during maintenance, saving time and labor costs in industrial applications.
- Versatile Bore Size Compatibility: G Type bushings accommodate a range of bore sizes, both inch and metric, making them adaptable to various shaft diameters. This flexibility simplifies inventory management and application versatility.
- Enhanced Torque Transmission: The keyed connection to both shaft and hub, combined with the tapered fit, ensures positive drive and high torque transfer. This prevents component loosening, improving power transmission efficiency.
- Improved Concentricity: The solid flange and double-split barrel maintain precise alignment between the bushing and mounted component, reducing vibration and wear. This enhances machinery longevity and operational smoothness in demanding conditions.
- Durability Under Load: Constructed from high-grade steel, these bushings withstand heavy loads and harsh environments. Their robust design ensures long-lasting performance, reducing the need for frequent replacements and maintenance costs.
- Interchangeability Across Brands: G Type bushings are standardized, allowing compatibility with components from different manufacturers. This interchangeability simplifies sourcing and replacement, providing flexibility in design and repair without proprietary constraints.
