Smooth guide bushing SD200 Series

Spring Alignment Dowels SPIROL’s Dowel Bushings and Spring Dowels are designed to maintain alignment and are used to locate components with respect to each other. These roll-formed, hollow Alignment Dowels have lead-in chamfers that facilitate insertion into the holes of both mating components. The Dowel's flexibility enables absorption of wide hole tolerances and the staggered seam prevents interlocking. Dowel Bushings are designed with an inside diameter clearance that allows the passage of a bolt for fastening, thereby eliminating the need to drill an additional hole. They are also heat treated to isolate the bolt from shear loads. Spring Dowels are designed around the holes in the mating components and are not used in conjunction with bolts. SPIROL’s Dowel Bushings and Spring Dowels simplify assembly, reduce weight and significantly lower costs. If installation equipment is required, SPIROL also offers a standard comprehensive line of Installation Equipment from manual to fully automatic modules, with or without out fixturing, to support your assembly requirements.
