Overview
The Dodge 097015 is a Taper-Lock Type S weld-on hub used in industrial power transmission systems. This steel hub is engineered for mounting onto shafting in fan rotors, pulleys, plate sprockets, and similar rotating components that require firm mechanical coupling. The hub accommodates the Dodge 2012 taper-lock bushing system for quick, reliable assembly and disassembly without specialized tools.
Key Features
- Type S Taper-Lock bushing compatibility for standard light-duty applications
- Constructed from 1015-1025 steel for strength and durability
- Pre-drilled and tapped mounting holes (2 bolt positions)
- Taper-bored to precisely receive taper-lock bushings
- Weld-on design for direct integration into rotors and sprockets
