Overview
The Dodge 117160 is a Type 1610 taper-lock bushing engineered for reliable shaft-coupling applications in industrial machinery. Built with sintered steel construction and an 8-degree taper design, this bushing provides secure, repeatable locking without axial movement. The flush-mounted, flangeless profile suits confined mounting spaces where compact dimensions matter.
Key Features
