Bushings transfer loads, mount devices on shafts, and reduce vibration and wear. Specially designed bushings handle different levels of torque and loads. These bushings include keyless, quick disconnect, taper locking, and split taper types. Taper-locking bushings and hubs feature a flangeless, screw-driven design used in flush-mounting and high-torque applications, while split taper bushings contain a double-split barrel to provide a strong hold on shafts. Split taper bushings do not require a perfectly matching bored component and can accommodate shaft size changes without manual adjustment or replacement.
