LongDescription#@#NA#@@#Cleaning Instructions#@#Wipe the OILITE BUSHING and surrounding hardware with a microfiber cloth and mild detergent; scrub grooves with a soft brush to remove grease. Rinse with clean water and dry immediately to prevent corrosion. Sanitize high-touch surfaces like nearby handles and covers using EPA-approved sanitizer per label dwell time. Inspect for wear each shift and replace if scoring appears. Regular cleaning prevents contamination of clean items and hands, deters pests, and preserves fittings' service life.#@@#Additional Info#@#PartsTown's 18852 OILITE BUSHING fits maintenance needs, measuring 0.55" L, 0.4" W, 0.55" H, and weighing 0.01 lbs; technicians install the self-lubricating bronze bushing to reduce friction and simplify service schedules.#@@#General Info#@#Description #@#
Precision oil-impregnated bushings provide reliable rotational support in high-use food service equipment, combining low maintenance with consistent performance. Designed for engineers and maintenance managers, this part fits tight tolerances to reduce play and vibration while operating across varied temperatures. PartsTown offers a compact bushing that simplifies replacements and minimizes downtime for busy kitchens and service facilities.
#@@# Dimensional Accuracy#@#
The component measures 0.55 inches in length, with an outer diameter of 0.4 inches and an inner diameter of 0.55 inches, providing a compact profile that fits constrained housings. Engineers will appreciate the tight machining tolerances that maintain concentricity and reduce wobble under load.
#@@# Low-Friction Operation#@#
Oil-impregnated construction supplies continuous lubrication at the sliding interface, lowering friction and improving lifecycle under cyclic motion. Technicians will benefit from reduced relubrication schedules and avoid frequent disassembly for maintenance.
#@@# Load Support Capacity#@#
Solid composite material effectively handles radial loads typical in conveyor drives, mixers, and motor shafts without deformation. Maintenance teams will observe consistent shaft alignment and reduced wear on mating components.
#@@# Corrosion Resistance#@#
Manufactured with corrosion-resistant properties, the bushing withstands humid and chemically cleaned environments common in kitchens and hospitals. Facility managers will extend service intervals and protect related parts from premature failure.
#@@# Compact Weight#@#
At approximately 0.01 pounds, the lightweight unit minimizes added mass on rotating assemblies, preserving motor efficiency and balance. Operations staff will note lower inertia during startup and reduced strain on bearings.
#@@#Delivery Details#@#

• Make sure to examine the product for damage before signing the delivery receipt.
• Contact customer service for delivery concerns.
• Delivery times may vary based on location.#@@#deliverynotes#@#NA#@@#Maintenance Guide#@#Inspect the 18852 OILITE BUSHING monthly for wear and corrosion. Remove installed units and clean bores with a lint-free cloth and a petroleum-compatible solvent; allow components to dry fully before reinstallation. Lubricate according to manufacturer specifications using specified oil quantities in gallons or liters conversions as required. Verify shaft alignment and tolerance; replace bushings when radial play exceeds manufacturer limits to prevent equipment failure and contamination.
