DX Type Bushings & Washers

High-Load Carbon Steel Bushings with Sintered Bronze & POM Self-Lubricating Sliding Surface PAP Bush

DEV PRECISION ENGINEERS manufactures premium-grade DX Type PAP Bushings and Washers designed specifically for dry, intermittent, or boundary-lubricated operating environments. Built with a heavy-duty multi-layer structure, our DX series offers high load-carrying capacity, low wear, and long service life where continuous manual lubrication is not feasible.

Multi-Layer Composite Structure

Our DX Bushings feature a engineered three-layer composite design for maximum durability:

  • POM Sliding Layer (0.30 mm – 0.50 mm: Wear-resistant polyacetal resin lining (available in standard or Lead-Free / RoHS compliant options) featuring grease pockets for optimal boundary lubrication retention.
  • Sintered Bronze Interlayer (0.20 mm – 0.30 mm: Delivers superior thermal conductivity and strong mechanical bonding between the polymer lining and steel substrate.
  • Low-Carbon Steel Backing (0.40 mm– 2.20 mm: Provides exceptional structural rigidity, high load-bearing strength, and dimensional stability under extreme stress.
  • Protective Plating: Anti-corrosive surface finish available in Tin plating (0.005 mm or Copper plating (0.008 mm).

Key Performance Advantages

  • Optimized Boundary Lubrication: Grease storage pockets on the POM surface slowly release lubricant, extending maintenance intervals significantly.
  • Heavy-Load & Impact Resistance: Steel backing absorbs high mechanical stress and shock loads in severe duty applications.
  • Corrosion Protection: Advanced tin or copper surface treatments prevent oxidation in harsh operating conditions.
  • Eco-Friendly Lead-Free Options: Complies with strict environmental standards for global exports.

Typical Applications & Industries

DEV Precision Engineers DX Type PAP Bushings excel in rotating, oscillating, and sliding machinery across demanding sectors:

  • Automotive & Commercial Vehicles: Vehicle chassis suspension, steering linkages, kingpins, and pedal assemblies.
  • Hydraulics & Fluid Power: Hydraulic cylinders, gear pumps, and valve actuators.
  • Industrial & Heavy Machinery: Metal forming tools, steel processing equipment, construction machinery, and agricultural implements.
  • General Mechanical Equipment: Conveyors, lifting platforms, and textile/packaging machinery.
