Eccentric Bushing

Eccentric bushings are a type of bushing used in various mechanical applications. They are part of the supply class Bushings, Rings, Shims, and Spacers, which falls under the supply group Hardware and Abrasives.

Eccentric bushings are designed with an off-center bore, allowing for adjustable positioning or alignment of components. They are commonly used in machinery, automotive applications, and other mechanical systems where precise adjustment or alignment is required.

The eccentricity of the bushing allows for fine-tuning of the position or angle of the connected components. By rotating the eccentric bushing, the position of the bore can be adjusted, providing flexibility in alignment and compensating for any misalignment or variation in dimensions.

These bushings are typically made from materials such as steel, brass, or bronze, depending on the specific application requirements. They are available in various sizes and configurations to accommodate different shaft diameters and mounting arrangements.

Overall, eccentric bushings are essential components in many mechanical systems, providing a means for precise adjustment and alignment of components, ensuring optimal performance and functionality.
