- Plain bushes manufacturers
Why should you use BS EN 4534-2 – Plain bushes?
Plain bushes are an independent type of plain bearing, used to prevent friction. They are a cylindrical lining used within a shaft, pin or hinge to prevent wear inside a hole. Plain bushes are inserted into a housing to provide a bearing surface for rotary applications.
An aluminium alloy (or aluminum alloy; see spelling differences) is an alloy in which aluminium (Al) is the predominant metal. The typical alloying elements are copper, magnesium, manganese, silicon, tin and zinc.
BS EN 4534-2 specifies the characteristics of plain bushes in aluminium alloy with self-lubricating liner. This can benefit you as this information is used in various aerospace applications. This can help you increase safety in operations.
