Description
Malleable Iron Face Bushing
A face bushing is a type of mechanical bushing used in various industrial and engineering applications. In general, a bushing is a cylindrical lining designed to reduce friction and wear inside a hole, or to constrain and guide moving parts.
In most contexts, a face bushing refers to a bushing where the flange or "face" extends outward from one end. This face:
-
Prevents axial movement of the bushing in one direction
-
Provides a stop or shoulder for the inserted shaft or mating part
-
Allows easier mounting in a housing or bore
