Description
Overview:
The Position 10A Ram Bush for Kubota KX36-3 excavators is a precision-machined sleeve that supports a pin in the hydraulic ram or linkage, helping the joint run smoothly and wear evenly. Made from robust steel for strength and long service life, it is designed to be externally greased so lubricant reaches the bearing surface during operation. This reduces friction and helps protect expensive pins and housings. Key dimensions are 30 mm internal diameter, 40 mm outer diameter, and 45 mm length, ensuring a snug, stable fit where specified. Supplied to suit compact excavators such as the Kubota KX36-3 and KX36, it replaces worn bushes to restore correct clearances and reliable movement in demanding site and landscaping work. MPN: 202 508.
Key Features:
- Externally greased design to feed lubricant directly to the bearing surface and reduce wear
- 30 mm I/D, 40 mm O/D, 45 mm length for accurate fitment where specified
- Durable steel construction to handle impact loads and oscillating motion
- Precision-machined bore for consistent clearance around the pin
- Smooth outer surface to aid press-fit installation in the housing
- Helps maintain tight joints, reducing play and improving control at the ram or linkage
- Suitable for heavy daily use on mini excavators and similar plant
- Simple replace-like-for-like maintenance part with no special tools beyond standard press equipment
- Can extend service life of pins and bores when used with regular greasing
- Chamfered ends assist alignment during fitting
Typical Applications:
Used at hydraulic cylinder eyes and pivot points on compact excavators to support the pin, minimise friction, and protect the housing. Ideal for restoring smooth articulation of boom, dipper, or bucket linkages, especially where frequent greasing is part of routine maintenance on construction, utilities, hire fleet, and landscaping machines.
