Browning 1069475 Split Taper Type P Sprocket Bushing

Product Description

The BROWNING 1069475 is a Type P split taper bushing designed for use with split taper sprockets and sheaves in power transmission drive systems. It features a 1.375-inch bore with a 5/16-inch keyway width and 5/32-inch keyway depth, making it a direct fit for keyed shaft installations. The outside diameter measures 3 inches, and the bushing is rated for a maximum torque of 192 inch-pounds. Constructed from iron, it delivers reliable holding strength under continuous rotational loads. Licensed HVAC technicians, millwrights, and mechanical contractors typically handle installation of split taper bushings during sheave or sprocket assembly and alignment work.

This bushing is suited for light-to-medium duty power transmission applications where split taper-style sprockets and sheaves are used. The split taper design allows the bushing to be drawn into the sprocket or sheave hub under fastener load, creating a concentric, self-centering fit on the shaft. It is commonly installed in belt-drive and chain-drive systems found in commercial HVAC air handlers, industrial conveyors, and pump drives. The P1 bushing series designation identifies the specific hub profile and thread pattern required for compatibility.

Compatibility

Designed for use with split taper sprockets and sheaves requiring a Type P, Series P1 bushing with a 1.375-inch bore. Confirm hub bore profile and thread size match before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified millwright or mechanical technician familiar with split taper bushing systems. De-energize and lock out the drive system completely before beginning any bushing installation or removal. Fasteners should be tightened evenly in an alternating pattern to draw the bushing uniformly into the hub taper. Do not use the bushing mounting screws to press the bushing out of the hub during removal without first consulting the manufacturer removal procedure.
