This replacement bushing carries a rotating or sliding shaft on a low-friction sleeve, taking the wear that would otherwise fall on the housing bore or the shaft itself. Installing it restores the original running clearance and protects the more expensive parts around it, closing up the play that opens as the old sleeve wears.
A bushing carries a rotating or sliding shaft on a replaceable low-friction sleeve, taking the wear that would otherwise fall on the housing bore or the shaft itself. Replacing it restores the original running clearance and protects the more expensive parts around it.
As a bushing wears, clearance opens up and the joint develops play, which is the signal to replace it before the mating surfaces start taking damage. Match the inside diameter, outside diameter, and length to the bushing being replaced, since a bushing has to fit both the shaft it carries and the bore it presses into.
