Frequently Asked Questions

DU bushings are ideal for dry-running environments, while DX is designed for use with grease or oil in oscillating or boundary lubrication conditions.

Yes, most cylindrical and flanged bushings are designed to be press-fit into housings to ensure proper alignment and operation.

A bushing is a type of plain bearing without rolling elements, typically used in low to moderate speed applications requiring quiet, low-maintenance operation.
