Collection: Bushings - Tension

A selection of Tension Bushings. Like a heavy duty roll pin.

• A hollow cylinder made from spring steel with a longitudinal slot that allows it to compress or expand upon installation into a bore.
• Acts as a heavy-duty, wear-resistant bearing in pivot points for high-load, low-speed applications, absorbing shock and extending the life of machinery and components by protecting the bore and shaft from damage.
• Also known as a split bushing or spring bushing.
• Made of a high carbon spring steel with high elasticity, resilience and wear characteristics.
• Designed to replace solid steel tubular and case hardened bushings because they are close tolerance, self-retaining and through hard.
• Insertion can be easily accomplished with a hammer and drift.
• Ideal for high load/low-speed operation in articulating or continuous applications.
