Overview
The Dodge 3535X3-3/8 Taper-Lock Bushing (part number 117233) is an industry-standard split bushing engineered for secure shaft locking in power transmission systems. This flangeless design provides a clean, compact installation without protruding parts, making it ideal for mounting pulleys, sheaves, and sprockets onto motor shafts or transmission lines. The 8-degree tapered bore combined with screw-driven clamping delivers a powerful grip that eliminates wobble and ensures true, centered rotation under load.
Key Features
- Flangeless design for clean, compact mounting with no protruding parts
- 8-degree taper grips tight with screw-driven clamping mechanism for secure locking
- Split bushing allows easy installation and removal without shaft disassembly
- Flush-mounted profile provides efficient power transmission without excess mass
- Rated for 44,800 in-lb torque capacity on standard applications
- Sintered steel or iron construction for durability in industrial environments
