Our Taper Bore Stock Sprockets are engineered for high-precision power transmission, offering a versatile solution for industrial drive systems. Designed to eliminate the need for traditional keyways and set screws, these sprockets utilize a taper-lock mechanism that ensures a secure, interference fit between the hub and the shaft, significantly reducing vibration and wear.
Available in a comprehensive range of British Standard (BS) sizes including 06B, 08B, 10B, 12B, 16B, 20B, and 24B, these sprockets provide exceptional flexibility for maintenance and installation. By utilizing a stock bore design with taper bush adaptors, users can achieve rapid mounting and precise axial positioning, making them ideal for demanding manufacturing environments.

| System Lifespan | Standard | Extended (Reduced Vibration) |
Taper bores provide a secure, interference fit that eliminates the need for keys and set screws, reducing shaft damage and simplifying the installation and removal process.
We offer a complete range including 06B, 08B, 10B, 12B, 16B, 20B, and 24B to suit various load and torque requirements.
Standard wrenches or hex keys are typically sufficient to tighten the locking screws, which drive the taper into the bore for a secure fit.
Yes, the 360-degree clamping force of the taper bore design makes it far more resistant to loosening under vibration compared to set-screw methods.
You should match the adaptor's inner diameter to your shaft diameter. We provide detailed sizing charts to help you select the correct pairing.
Our sprockets are manufactured from high-strength alloy steel or premium cast iron, depending on the application's requirements for hardness and wear resistance.
