Metaxentric™ Bushes
Features
Metaxentric™ bushes have a large rubber section with the
central pin offset towards one radial plane. These bushes
can provide a relatively large radial deflection, but have
excellent motion control characteristics.
The Metaxentric™ bush has the following features:
Three dissimilar translational stiffnesses for the best
vibration isolation and motion control.
Load range from 135 to 480 kg.
’Rising rate’ stiffness characteristics for overload
conditions help to limit motion and transmitted
acceleration.
Robust and fail-safe, suitable for ROPS and FOPS cab
structures.
Simple to fit, the housing lends itself to robust structures.

type Metaxentric™ Bushes
Similar to conventional Ultra Duty Bushes but with inner
and outer sleeves offset radially. This feature provides a
greater rubber thickness and hence increased flexibility in
the normal direction of loading while maintaining control
in other modes and still allowing torsional movement.
The rubber section is relieved to eliminate harmful tensile
stresses.
Applications:
Vehicle spring eye mounting
Tilt Cab pivot bush
Engine mounting
