Bushing definition engineering

In the mining sector, bushings withstand harsh conditions and heavy loads, contributing to the functionality of equipment like conveyor systems and drilling machinery. In manufacturing, they support rotating and sliding shafts in machine tools, presses, and industrial robots, ensuring smooth operation.

In the mechanical industry, a sleeve typically denotes a cylindrical tube that serves to shield or encase another component. However, when the term sleeve is combined with bushing, it specifically refers to a type of bushing known as a sleeve bushing.

This is a general term, that refers to a cylindrical element between two parts to reduce friction during movement. The term originates from the Latin word “buxida”, meaning box.

Thread starter welldigger Start date Dec 22, 2012 ••• More options Who Replied? Dec 22, 2012 #1 welldigger Active member 2,602 16 38 Location Benton LA OK so I am currently replacing the seals and boots in my steer axle. I have everything removed except the inner axle seals. I'm going to knock those things out tomorrow afternoon and begin reassembly. The only thing I can't seem to get a strait answer on is what do I torque the spindle nuts to when I reassemble the spindle? I have searched and searched and maybe I'm just tired and overlooked it but I just can't find it. And I never can find what I'm looking for in the tech manuals....which is also frustrating.

Countryboy21 08-02-2011 18:46 [HR][/HR]​just got mine done and took it for a test drive. what to the recommended spec to set the axle nut too? i might have to wrench down on that some more. i used 12# of grease on the front axles. i love lube! aaron379 08-02-2011 19:42 [HR][/HR]​the axel nut just needs to be snug do not over tighten it and do not keep it too loose... after driving it feel the axel cover and see if it is cool if it is burning hot the nut it to tight and you will burn out the bearings Mike929 08-03-2011 04:32 [HR][/HR]​Quote: [HR][/HR]​Originally Posted by aaron379 (Post 906946) the axle nut just needs to be snug do not over tighten it and do not keep it too loose... after driving it feel the axle cover and see if it is cool if it is burning hot the nut it to tight and you will burn out the bearings [HR][/HR]​ I went through a couple of bearings on my '76 Trans Am before I learned that a little loose is better then a little tight when securing the castle nut on the front spindle of that car. The procedure was to tighten it to set the the bearings then back off before securing the nut. Assume there is a similar procedure for the Deuce? davey8943 08-03-2011 07:34 [HR][/HR]​1 Attachment(s) Wheel Bearing adjustments are covered in TM 2320-361-24-1 work package 189..... I pasted it below for reference.

While a bushing is a type of bearing, not all bearings are bushings. Bearings encompass a broader category that includes elements like ball bearings, roller bearings, and bushings. Specifically, bushings are a type of plain bearing that provide low-friction support for rotating shafts without the need for rolling elements. To get to know different types of bushings and their various applications, you can find more information in our article here on bushing types.

What is bushingson a car

Bushings, bushes and bearings are often used interchangeably to refer to the same mechanical component: an element inserted between two parts to reduce friction during movement. However, it’s important to note that these terms, while similar, are used with subtle differences depending on the specific context and application

The term is often used to define the position of the bushing within a mechanical system, such as reduction bushing, traction bushing, centering bushing, guide bushings, etc.

Bushings are essential components utilized across various industries. They are commonly employed in agriculture, construction, mining, and manufacturing equipment.

In agriculture, bushings ensure seamless operation in tractors, harvesters, and other farming machinery by facilitating movement in linkages and steering mechanisms. Similarly, in construction equipment like excavators and loaders, bushings enable essential components such as boom arms and buckets to move efficiently.
