Nylon Shaft Bushings are high-performance, self-lubricating bearings designed to reduce friction and wear in rotating or sliding shaft applications. Made from engineered nylon polymers, these bushings offer excellent durability, noise reduction, and maintenance-free operation in various industrial and mechanical systems.
✔ Self-Lubricating – Reduces friction without grease or oil
✔ Wear-Resistant – Long service life even under continuous motion
✔ Corrosion-Proof – Ideal for wet or chemically aggressive environments
✔ Lightweight – 80% lighter than bronze bushings
Vibration Damping – Absorbs shock and reduces noise
Low Maintenance – No relubrication required
Cost-Effective – 50-70% cheaper than metal alternatives
Temperature Resistant (-40°F to +250°F operating range)
