Carbon Blank Bush

A “Carbon Blank Bush” refers to an unfinished or raw bushing made from carbon-based materials, such as carbon fiber composite or carbon graphite. Bushings are cylindrical components with a central hole used as a bearing or guide for a shaft or rod, allowing it to rotate or move with reduced friction.

Carbon-based bushings offer several advantages, including high strength, low weight, self-lubricating properties, and resistance to wear and corrosion. They are commonly used in various industrial applications where low friction and high-performance bearings are required.

Here are some common uses and applications of carbon blank bushes:
Bearing Applications: Carbon blank bushes can be machined into bearings for various rotating machinery, such as pumps, compressors, and electric motors. The self-lubricating properties of carbon reduce the need for additional lubrication, making them suitable for applications where maintenance is challenging.

Automotive and Transportation: In automotive and transportation applications, carbon blank bushes are used in suspension systems, control arms, and other components that require low friction and excellent durability.
Marine and Watercraft: Carbon bushes are also used in marine applications, such as propeller shaft bearings, due to their resistance to seawater and corrosion.

Aerospace and UAVs: Carbon blank bushes find use in aerospace applications for various bearing and guiding functions in aircraft and unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs).

High-Temperature Environments: Carbon-based materials have good thermal resistance, making them suitable for applications involving high temperatures, such as in industrial ovens, furnaces, and high-temperature processing equipment.

Electrical Equipment: Carbon blank bushes can be used as brushes in electrical machines, such as generators and electric motors, where sliding contacts are required for power transmission.

Like with carbon blank blocks, machining or working with carbon-based materials requires specialized tools and expertise to achieve precise dimensions and tolerances. The exact design and specifications of carbon blank bushes depend on the specific application, load capacity, operating conditions, and environmental factors.

Carbon blocks find wide-ranging applications across different industries, thanks to their exceptional properties.
