Rubber Bushes

At MVC Polymers, a leading manufacturer in Bangalore, we specialize in producing high-quality Rubber Bushes. These crucial components are meticulously engineered to provide effective vibration isolation, shock absorption, cushioning, and flexible articulation between mechanical parts. Designed for superior durability and consistent performance, our rubber bushes are indispensable in a vast array of automotive, industrial, construction, and agricultural applications, ensuring smooth operation and extended equipment life.

  • Vibration Isolation & Dampening: The primary function. The inherent elasticity of rubber effectively absorbs and dissipates kinetic energy, significantly reducing vibrations and noise transmission between connected components.

  • Shock Absorption: Cushions impacts and sudden loads, protecting mechanical parts from excessive stress and premature wear.

  • Flexible Articulation/Pivot: Provides a degree of controlled movement or angular deflection between components without requiring lubrication, unlike traditional metal bearings.

  • Noise Reduction: By dampening vibrations and preventing metal-to-metal contact, rubber bushes significantly reduce operational noise.

  • Load Distribution: Spreads localized loads over a larger area, protecting surfaces and ensuring even stress distribution.

  • Insulation (Electrical & Thermal): Many rubber compounds are non-conductive, offering electrical isolation. They can also provide a degree of thermal insulation.

  • Material Versatility: Available in a wide array of rubber compounds to suit specific application requirements:

    • Natural Rubber (NR): Excellent elasticity, high tensile strength, good tear and abrasion resistance, ideal for dynamic applications with high deflection.

    • EPDM: Excellent weather, UV, ozone, and water resistance, suitable for outdoor and wet environments.

    • Nitrile (NBR/Buna-N): Good resistance to petroleum-based oils, fuels, and greases.

    • Neoprene (Chloroprene): Good balance of oil, weather, and chemical resistance.

    • Silicone: Excellent high and low-temperature resistance, good for dry heat, but lower mechanical strength than NR/NBR.

    • Polyurethane (PU): Often used for bushes where higher stiffness, load-bearing, and abrasion resistance are needed compared to traditional rubbers.

  • Bonded Designs (Metal-to-Rubber): Many bushes feature rubber chemically bonded to metal sleeves, providing robust attachment points and preventing slippage between the rubber and its housing/shaft.

  • Temperature Tolerance: Different rubber compounds enable performance across a wide range of temperatures, accommodating diverse operating environments.
