LORD bushings are used in applications that require shock absorption, noise attenuation and wear reduction without the use of lubrication.
Center-bonded bushings are designed to be loaded radially and utilize a soft torsional spring rate to provide freedom in rotation. High radial restraint maintains the alignment between joined parts. Typical applications include heavy duty highway equipment, drilling equipment, harvesters, combines and industrial machinery.
Square-bonded bushings accommodate angular movement and isolate vibratory disturbances in heavy equipment. These bushings combine a torsional spring with an elastomeric pivot and isolator. Typical applications include wheel suspensions, vibratory feeders, mobile power equipment and vibratory cable layers.
