Weld on Hubs

Weld-on hubs are designed to enable conversation of platewheels to sprockets, with a fully welded construction taking a taper lock bush. Taper Bore Weld-on-Hubs are made out of steel, drilled, tapped and taper bored to receive standard Taper Bushes. The extended flange provides a convenient means of welding hubs into fan rotors, steel pulleys, plate sprockets, impellers, agitators and many other devices which must be firmly fastened to the shaft. Weld-on-Hubs are easy to install and entirely suitable for use where severe operating conditions are met. Tightening the screws contracts the bore of the bush, thereby locking it to the shaft with the equivalent of press fit. This type of construction eliminates mounting difficulties, it also prevents loosening and wear on the hub during operation.
