Overview
The Dodge 246267 TDT6 tapered bushing is a precision-engineered twin tapered bushing assembly purpose-built for Dodge Torque-Arm TDT6 double reduction shaft mount speed reducers. With a bore diameter of 2-15/16 inches (2.9375″), this component is engineered to support high-torque power transmission in industrial machinery, conveyor systems, and heavy-duty equipment. The 8-degree taper design enables keyless locking directly onto the shaft, eliminating the need for traditional keyways and providing superior holding power.
Key Features
- Twin Tapered Design: Dual taper geometry ensures balanced load distribution and extended bushing life
- 8-Degree Taper: Keyless locking mechanism provides positive shaft engagement without integral keys
- Ductile Iron Construction: Class 65 ductile iron material resists wear and withstands shock loads in demanding environments
- Bore Length: 10.75 inches of bearing surface for stable shaft support
- High Rated Torque: Rated for 45,427 inch-pounds, supporting robust industrial reducer applications
- Six-Bolt Mounting: Standard flange mounting with 360 inch-pound installation torque specification
Technical Specifications
The bushing is manufactured to exacting tolerances for use in Torque-Arm TDT and TXT series speed reducers. Installation requires application of controlled torque to seat the assembly properly on the shaft.
Typical Applications
- Torque-Arm TDT6 double reduction speed reducers
