Valve Bushing
Valve Bushing
Self-lubricating bronze bearings are engineered for applications where external lubrication is impractical. Solid lubricants are compressed and molded directly into the bearing to guarantee a maintenance-free product. No additional lubrication is necessary.
Valve Bushing’s Role in Machines
Valve bushings, also known as plain bearings or sleeve bearings, are cylindrical components used to provide support and reduce friction between moving parts in machinery. They are commonly found in a wide range of applications, from engines and gearboxes to industrial equipment and household appliances.

Bronze valve bushings are cylindrical components made from bronze alloy, a material known for its durability, corrosion resistance, and self-lubricating properties. These bushings are used to provide support, reduce friction, and enhance the overall performance of various types of valves, including gate valves.
Gate valves are popular in industrial applications due to their ability to provide full flow capacity with minimal pressure drop. They operate by lifting a gate or wedge out of the path of the fluid, allowing for unobstructed flow, and then closing tightly to halt the flow.

Hydraulic Valve Bushing for Unmatched Performance
Our hydraulic valve bushings are designed to exceed expectations. Crafted from C93200 SAE 660 Bearing Bronze ASTM B505, these bushings undergo meticulous turning and boring processes to ensure exact specifications. This cast bronze bushing features a step on the OD and a groove, ensuring secure attachment to the hydraulic valve. The composition of C932 bronze includes a small amount of lead, enhancing its natural bearing qualities.
These hydraulic valve bushings play an integral role in mobile hydraulic systems, serving industries such as forestry equipment, material handling equipment, municipal vehicles, and refuse vehicles. The reliability and durability of our bushings contribute to the overall efficiency of these systems.
Types of Valve Bushing Bearing
There are various types of valve bushings designed to meet specific application requirements. Some of the common types include:
- Sleeve bushings are cylindrical in shape and are often used in applications with moderate loads and low speeds. They provide excellent radial support and can handle both radial and axial loads.
- Flanged bushings have a flange at one end that provides additional axial support. This design is particularly useful in applications where the bushing may experience axial movement.
- Thrust washers, a subtype of valve bushings, are used to manage axial loads. They are flat and typically placed between two components to prevent metal-to-metal contact.

Valve Bushing in the Automotive Sector
A valve bushing is a crucial component within the automotive sector that plays a significant role in the proper functioning of internal combustion engines. It serves as a support and guiding mechanism for the engine’s valves, which are responsible for controlling the flow of air and fuel into the combustion chamber and expelling exhaust gases after combustion.
The valve bushing is typically made from durable materials such as bronze, steel, or other alloys, which are chosen for their heat resistance, wear resistance, and ability to withstand the high temperatures and pressures present in the engine environment. The bushing is designed to reduce friction and wear between the valve stem and the valve guide, allowing smooth movement of the valve as it opens and closes during the engine’s operation.
The role of the valve bushing is critical in maintaining proper engine performance, efficiency, and longevity.
Application in Valves
Valve bushings are used in various types of valves, including:
-
Gate Valves: Bushings are used in the stem or gland areas to reduce friction and wear as the valve opens and closes.
-
Globe Valves: They are used in the stem or bonnet area to ensure smooth operation and to prevent leakage.
-
Ball Valves: Bushings may be used in the stem or seat area to provide stability and reduce wear.
-
Butterfly Valves: Bushings are often used in the stem or shaft area to support the valve disc and ensure smooth rotation.
