Description
2012x40mmSS Taper-Lock® Style Bushing, 40mm Bore, Stainless steel
The 2012x40mmSS is a 2012 series Taper-Lock style bushing with a 40mm bore, machined from solid stainless steel. It mounts any 2012-bushed component, including sheaves, sprockets, and timing pulleys, to a 40mm shaft. Every bushing is machined from solid stock, never sintered or powdered metal, which matters in a part that transmits its load through a friction fit.

Frequently Asked Questions
What does the 2012x40mmSS bushing fit?
It fits any sheave, sprocket, pulley, or coupling machined for a 2012 series Taper-Lock style bushing, and mounts that component to a 40mm shaft. The 2012 size is standardized across manufacturers, so the component brand does not matter.
Does the 2012x40mmSS replace the Dodge 2012 X 40MMSS bushing?
Yes. The 2012 series dimensions are an industry standard, and published interchange data crosses the 2012x40mmSS directly to the Dodge 2012 X 40MMSS, as well as Gates SS 2012 40MM, Maska 2012X40MMSS. Verify bore size before ordering.
How does a Taper-Lock style bushing install?
The bushing is split and tapered. Slide it onto the shaft, seat the component over it, and tighten the pull-up screws in the threaded holes. The screws draw the taper into the component, clamping the bushing onto the shaft. To remove, back the screws out and use them in the jacking holes to break the taper free.
Why choose a stainless steel bushing like the 2012x40mmSS?
Stainless resists corrosion in wash-down, food processing, chemical, and outdoor service where standard black oxide steel bushings rust. Dimensions match the standard series, so stainless swaps in without changing the component.
