Polyurethane Bushing

A polyurethane bushing serves as a friction-reducing element, positioned between moving parts and stationary surfaces as an alternative to traditional lubricants. The choice of polyurethane for these bushings is due to its impressive durability, robustness, and resistance to stress and friction. These bushings are more enduring compared to those made from plastic or rubber.

The hardness range is ShoreA 90±5

Common types of polyurethane bushings are split bushings, solid bushings, and clamping bushings.

Common Applications For Urethane Bushings

From consumer applications to urethane suspension bushings for commercial heavy-duty trucking and transportation applications, urethane bushings can be relied on to facilitate movement and provide stability in a wide array of environments. Their formula, size, and durometer are selected based on a combination of factors, including the velocity of the application and the applied load. Urethane bushings are often utilized in vehicle suspension systems, commercial equipment, and heavy-duty trucks. Common applications include:

● Bump stops

● Body mounts

● Torque arms

● Control arms

● Hydraulic presses

● Automation machinery

● Material handling solutions

● Hydraulic motors and pumps

● Trailing arms
