Description
Overview:
The Position 10 hardened bush, 30x40x30 mm, is a robust plain bearing for high-wear pivot points on mini excavators. Made from hardened steel, it supports rotational movement on a pin while controlling play and reducing friction at the joint. It is designed for press-fit installation into the host bore and to run on a correctly sized pin, restoring smooth, accurate movement. With dimensions of 30 mm inner diameter, 40 mm outer diameter, and 30 mm length, it suits many compact machines, including CAT 301.5 and Volvo EC15B. This bush is a dependable replacement choice where durability and consistent performance are required in demanding site conditions.
Key Features:
- Hardened steel construction for long wear life in abrasive, high-load environments.
- Precise 30 mm ID x 40 mm OD x 30 mm length for reliable, true-to-size replacement.
- Smooth bearing surface helps reduce friction and maintain tight joint tolerances.
- Press-fit design for straightforward installation in compatible housings.
- Helps restore accuracy in pin-and-bush joints, reducing play and vibration.
- Suitable for common pivot points such as boom, arm, bucket, and dozer blade linkages.
- Compatible with selected CAT and Volvo mini excavators where these dimensions are specified.
- One-piece, solid sleeve form factor for strength and consistent support.
Typical Applications:
Used at pivot points that see frequent articulation and shock loads, including bucket linkages, dipper arm pivots, boom bases, quick coupler interfaces, and blade hinges on mini excavators. Ideal when refurbishing worn joints to improve machine accuracy, reduce knocking, and extend pin life. Suitable for workshop rebuilds or on-site maintenance where a durable, correctly sized bush is required.
