Why Choose This Bushing?
Performance‑oriented hobbyists demand parts that won’t let them down under high‑stress conditions. This RC bushing’s combination of exact tolerances, robust material, and low‑friction finish makes it a trusted choice for:
- Competitive racing where milliseconds count
- Long‑term outdoor projects exposed to the elements
- Professional prototype builds and hobbyist DIY projects
Installation Tips
- Verify the shaft or rod matches the 0.312 in bore before installation.
- Apply a thin layer of high‑quality synthetic lubricant to the bushing’s inner surface for optimal movement.
- Insert the bushing gently, using a small press or a wooden mallet with a protective sleeve to avoid surface damage.
- Secure with the appropriate retaining clip or set screw, ensuring the bushing remains centered.
- Test the movement range before final assembly to confirm smooth operation.
