Flexible bush bearing for harsh environment
Stop-choc

Flexible bushes offer the ideal solution where a designer needs to carry load whilst allowing for rotational, conical or linear movements. Unlike conventional bearings, they offer a friction free system with none of the stick/slip characteristics found in other systems. As there are no moving parts our flexible bushes are maintenance free as well as providing isolation of vibration and noise. This makes them ideal for swinging arm or wishbone arrangements on vehicle suspension, moving elements in special purpose machines and pivot points for all sorts of applications.

Flexible bushes are also designed to offer vibration isolation and an effective break in the path of structural borne noise whilst reacting extreme loads. They are commonly used as torque reaction links on large power trains, rail vehicle traction motors, petrol or diesel engines and gearbox mountings for wind turbines to name a few.
