1. What is a bronze bushing
A bushing is a cylindrical component designed to support loads on a shaft that operates by sliding motion between moving surfaces.
The bushing is a single-element assembly, although it may be composed of several different materials. Also known as sleeve bearings, bushings slide on a rod or shaft to provide extremely low-friction motion, providing excellent shock absorption and working to minimize energy use, noise, and wear.
Bushing type
The two main types of bushings include sleeve and flange bushings. When designed with flanges, they can handle combined loads.
Bushings can be threaded on the interior or exterior surface to accommodate a variety of assembly conditions.
In addition to different types, bushings are also available in different material compositions.
The material composition of the bushing helps it withstand the conditions of the operating environment, such as corrosion, high temperatures, high pressures, and shocks.
Bronze bushings are typically made from continuous cast bronze material to ensure a uniform structure.
They are general-purpose bushings that provide excellent load-carrying and wear protection while being able to withstand high temperatures (temperatures up to 450°F).
Metal bushings can also be made from a variety of metals or alloys to enhance their performance, including steel or stainless steel, brass, aluminum, and copper.
