Browning 1078310 Type H Split Taper Sprocket Bushing

Product Description

The BROWNING 1078310 is a Type H split taper sprocket bushing designed for use with split taper sprockets and sheaves in mechanical power transmission applications. It features a 15/16 inch bore with a 1/4 inch keyway width and 1/8 inch keyway depth, providing a secure, keyed shaft connection. The bushing accommodates an outer diameter range of 1.57 to 1.625 inches. Weighing 0.65 pounds, this compact component is installed by millwrights, maintenance mechanics, and industrial technicians working on conveyor, drive, and power transmission assemblies where precise shaft-to-hub locking is required.

This bushing is suited for industrial and commercial power transmission systems that use split taper sprockets and sheaves. The split taper design allows for straightforward installation and removal without specialized pulling equipment, making it a practical choice for routine maintenance and scheduled rebuilds on drive systems across manufacturing, material handling, and processing environments.

Key Features

• Type H split taper configuration for positive shaft locking and easy removal
• 15/16 inch bore sized for standard shaft diameters
• 1/4 inch keyway width by 1/8 inch keyway depth for keyed shaft applications
• Compatible outer diameter range of 1.57 to 1.625 inches

Compatibility

Designed for use with split taper sprockets and sheaves. Confirm bushing type, bore size, and OD range match the sprocket or sheave hub specifications before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a millwright or qualified maintenance mechanic. Lock out and tag out all energy sources before servicing any drive or power transmission component. Clean the bushing bore and shaft mating surfaces before assembly to ensure proper seating. Follow the sprocket or sheave manufacturer torque sequence for the bushing fasteners to achieve uniform clamping force.
