The Taper-Lock Stud is mounted through a machine component and secured within a taper lock bushing. The taper lock bushing itself is installed in a matching tapered bore on another machine component. Tightening a nut on the threaded end of the stud applies a pulling force. This force creates friction between the stud and the bushing, effectively locking the two components together.Attributes:• Offers high strength and good resistance to wear and tear• Helps to distribute the load evenly among the connected partsApplications: The Taper-Lock Stud is a threaded rod with identical threads on both ends and a slightly tapered section in the middle. This tapered section creates a frictional fit when inserted into a matching taper lock bushing.
