Light Duty Dry-Running Sleeve Bearings
Use where high loads and speeds are not required.
Note: Dynamic load capacity is the maximum load a bearing can withstand at a given shaft speed. If your application’s load and speed requirements are below the values listed, the bearing will work.

Multipurpose Flanged Sleeve Bearings
These bronze bearings are strong, wear resistant, and excellent at handling shock loads. They’re sometimes called 660 leaded bronze bearings.
Note: Dynamic load capacity is the maximum load a bearing can withstand at a given shaft speed. If your application’s load and speed requirements are below the values listed, the bearing will work.

Light Duty Dry-Running Thrust Bearings
Use where high loads and speeds are not required.
Thermoplastic bearings are fiber reinforced and lubricant infused for good wear resistance and low friction with light and medium loads.
Note: Dynamic load capacity is the maximum load a bearing can withstand at a given shaft speed. If your application’s load and speed requirements are below the values listed, the bearing will work.

Metric Press-Fit Drill Bushings
Also known as jig bushings, these metric drill bushings fit inside fixture plate holes to guide drill bits, counterbores, reamers, and other cutting tools. They improve accuracy so that your drilled holes and cuts are consistent from part to part. Known for their versatility, drill bushings are also used as spacers, shims, and machinery bushings. These bushings are made of hardened, ground steel that holds its shape and resists wear, so they last for many cycles without needing to be replaced.
All bushings have a chamfer on the outside that centers the bushing as you place it into the hole. Press into place with a manual or hydraulic press. They also have internal chamfers, so it's easier to insert bits, pins, and punches into the bushing. Some bushings have internal chamfers on both ends, so no matter which end of the bushing is inserted into your jig, your bits, pins, and other tooling enter easily. Having an internal chamfer on the bottom of your bushing may cause shavings to get caught and bind as you remove the bit, however.
DIN 179 bushings meet dimensional and material standards that make sure they're compatible with other parts and tools. Although DIN 179 is no longer an active standard, it's still a common reference point for designers.

Metric Press-Fit Drill Bushings with Head
Even under extreme drilling pressure, these metric bushings won't press through your jig plate. A flanged head on the top of the bushing acts as a stop, preventing it from moving as you push down your drill bit, reamer, or other cutting bit. Drill bushings ensure accurate, consistent cuts and drilled holes from one part to the next. They sometimes also work as spacers, shims, and machinery bushings. Made of hardened, ground steel, these bushings hold their shape and resist wear over time. The flanged head protects your jig plate from damage caused by heavy use.
Although it's no longer an active standard, DIN 172 is still a common reference point for making sure parts are compatible with other parts and tools.
These bushings work in both countersunk and standard drill holes. To install, place the bushing inside the hole in your jig. A chamfered edge on the bottom of the bushing helps center the bushing in the hole. Once centered, press the bushing into the hole with a hydraulic or lever press.

Flush-Mount Screw-Clamp Bushings
Insert these bushings into the bore of your sprocket for flush or recessed mounting. They handle shock loads. When you tighten the included clamping screws, the bushing's inner sleeve contracts onto the shaft and the outer sleeve expands to hold your sprocket, pulley, or gear. They can be mounted on shafts with or without keyways.

Taper-Lock Bushings
Mount these hubless bushings flush into your sprocket or pulley for a slim profile with no protruding screws. They are for use with taper-lock sprockets of the same bushing style. As you tighten the included set screws, the bushing grips the shaft and pulls it into your sprocket or pulley.

Split-Tapered Bushings
The tapered barrel on these bushings is split on both sides, allowing them to contract more tightly around the shaft than quick-disconnect and taper-lock bushings. They're for use with split-tapered sprockets and pulleys of the same bushing style. As you tighten the included screws, the bushing grips the shaft and pulls it into the sprocket or pulley.
Bushings with a machine key fit into a matching keyway on a sprocket or pulley for high-torque applications.

Ring Shims
Precisely align, level, and adjust spacing on fasteners, shafts, and machinery with these shims.
For accurate leveling, choose materials such as steel or stainless steel, which are hard enough to resist scratching and deforming. Softer shims, like copper or aluminum, can be used as wear plates between components that rub together, preventing damage to equipment.
Spring steel shims are comparable in strength to carbon steel shims, but are harder and hold their shape better. They aren't as corrosion resistant as other shims.
