ELASTOMERS AND BUSHINGS
Hendrickson’s unique elastomer and bushing designs are higher-performing, more durable and provide low-maintenance operation
Why use rubber in heavy truck suspensions? • Reduce overall suspension weight • Lower component costs • Increase durability in harsh operating environments • Ease of service and replacement
• Reduce maintenance – requires no lubrication • Provides isolation and damping through energy absorption • Add system compliance for greater articulation and mobility
Spring Eye Bushings Spring eye bushings are designed as integral components of the spring system, providing enhanced performance in the areas of roll stability, ride and durability.
