Climax Metal SRB-040617 1/4" ID X 3/8" OD Bushing

The Climax Metal SRB-040617 is a precision-engineered galvanized split steel reducer bushing designed for high-reliability power transmission setups. This shaft adapter bushing features a 1/4 inch inside diameter and a 3/8 inch outside diameter, specifically utilized to adapt larger bores in pulleys, gears, or sprockets to shafts of a smaller diameter. With an overall length of 1-1/16 inches and a 3/16 inch keyway, this component ensures a secure, slip-resistant mechanical fit in demanding HVACR and industrial drive applications. The steel reducer bushing is hot-dipped galvanized to provide superior corrosion resistance, making it an ideal choice for technicians working in environments exposed to moisture or temperature fluctuations. Its split bushing design allows for easier installation and a tighter grip on the shaft compared to solid sleeves, maintaining operational concentricity and reducing vibration in high-RPM motor assemblies.

• Precision Sizing: Corrects bore-to-shaft mismatches with a 1/4" ID and 3/8" OD profile.
• Corrosion Resistant: Hot-dipped galvanized finish protects the SRB-040617 from oxidation in damp HVAC environments.
• Industrial Durability: Solid steel construction maintains dimensional integrity under significant torque loads.
• Versatile Compatibility: Standardized dimensions for seamless use with reducer parts and accessories in power transmission.
• Enhanced Grip: The split-type configuration provides a more uniform clamping force across the shaft surface.

• Can this bushing be used with keyed shafts? Yes, the SRB-040617 includes a 3/16-inch keyway to facilitate a locked mechanical connection.
• How does the split design benefit installation? It allows for slight flexibility during mounting, ensuring the galvanized steel bushing fits snugly even on shafts with minor wear.
• Is this suitable for high-speed pulley applications? Absolutely; when properly keyed and seated, it maintains the balance and alignment required for high-speed rotational equipment.
