Taper-Lock Roller Chain Coupling Sprockets – TLF and TLH Size Chart
TLF and TLH Taper-Lock Roller Chain Coupling Sprockets
TLF and TLH Taper-Lock roller chain coupling sprockets are taper-bushed coupling halves used in roller chain coupling assemblies. They help connect two shafts together using matching coupling sprockets and roller chain.
These coupling sprockets are manufactured from steel, feature heat-treated hardened teeth, and are commonly used on conveyors, mixers, packaging equipment, agricultural machinery, material handling systems, and industrial drives.
TLF vs. TLH difference: On the F Series, the Taper-Lock bushing installs from the face side of the sprocket. On the H Series, the Taper-Lock bushing installs from the hub side of the sprocket. Match the series already being used on your existing coupling.
When replacing one coupling half, confirm the part number, series, chain size, tooth count, bushing size, and outside diameter. If your old coupling half is marked 4016TLF, replace it with the F Series version. If it is marked 4016TLH, replace it with the H Series version.

Why Use a Taper-Lock Coupling Sprocket?
Taper-Lock coupling sprockets are useful when you want a secure shaft connection with the flexibility of interchangeable bushings. Instead of ordering a coupling half with one fixed bore size, the bushing handles the shaft fit. This can make replacements easier and helps reduce the number of finished-bore parts needed on the shelf.
These coupling sprockets are commonly used on conveyors, mixers, packaging equipment, agricultural machinery, material handling systems, industrial drives, and other equipment where two shafts need to be connected with a roller chain coupling.
Common Selection Details
When ordering a Taper-Lock roller chain coupling sprocket, confirm the part number, series, chain size, tooth count, bushing size, and outside diameter. If you are replacing an existing coupling half, match the markings on the old sprocket whenever possible.
