- The toothed slot produces a nearly closed surface in the slot area similar to that of a solid bushing. Generally, there is no need to position the slot in relation to the load.
- Because of the CONNEX Principle, the seating capacity of the spring bushing is greatly increased in the housing bore.
- Harmful stresses, seating and assembly problems associated with solid bushings can be avoided. Insertion and pressing out are easily performed.
- The bushings have a high resistance to wear because they are produced from chrome-vanadium spring steel AISI 6150.
- For increased precision and quality, CONNEX Spring Bushings can meet a closer tolerance by having the ID machined.
- Grease grooves and grease holes can be added to the bushings where required.
- Hardened steel shafts are recommended for use in CONNEX Spring Bushings with the bushing being the wear part and easily replaced, preserving the load carrying component.
- The bushing is generally cost-effective based on its purchase price and assembly cost.
- Special features can be added to the CONNEX Spring Bushing to meet requirements of specific application.
