SKF Guide and Slide Bushing Set

SKF fork bushing combine the mechanical strength of steel with the low friction of a PTFE-based self-lubricating sliding layer.The intermediate thin bronze layer creates a strong bond between the backing and sliding surfacesand improves the dissipation of heat generated during operation. To protect the bearings from corrosion the steel backing is copper-plated.

The PTFE-based sliding surface permits smooth low-friction operation for a plush riding feeling. During a short run phase there will be some transfer of PTFE material from the sliding contact surface to the counter face. After
