Thrust Washers, Flanged Bushings & Wear Plates
Not every sliding surface is a plain sleeve. Thrust washers take axial load; flanged bushings combine radial and thrust faces; wear plates and slide plates protect linear or wedge surfaces in molds and machinery. Liantuo Bushing supplies these forms across the same construction families as our sleeve lines — especially graphite-plugged and PTFE-lined — cut or machined to drawing.
When to use
- Axial load in addition to (or instead of) radial load
- Mold slides, wedge blocks, and linear wear surfaces
- Flanged positions that need a one-piece radial + thrust face
- Replacement wear plates matched to an existing construction
Forms available
- Thrust washers (graphite-plugged, PTFE-lined, and other constructions as specified)
- Flanged bushings
- Wear plates / slide plates (graphite-plugged common in molds)
- Custom blanks and finished plates to drawing
Materials
Follows the parent construction (graphite-plugged, PTFE-lined, or other as specified).
Typical duty
Injection and stamping mold guides and slides; die-set wear plates; equipment thrust faces; BOM lines that call for washer or plate rather than a plain sleeve.
Operating envelope (qualitative)
Follows the parent construction (graphite-plugged vs PTFE vs other). Send load direction, stroke, temperature, and mating-surface notes with the RFQ.
