This CAT bushing is a wear-resistant component designed to reduce friction and prevent direct metal-to-metal contact between moving parts, typically found in pivot points and linkage systems. It is manufactured to precise tolerances using durable materials to ensure longevity and smooth operation. A worn bushing will result in increased play, sloppy movement, and potential damage to the mating components.
Always verify with serial number before ordering.

Never strike bearings directly — use a bearing press or driver set. Heat housing (not bearing) to ease installation. Replace bearings in sets where applicable. Check housing bore diameter before fitting — out-of-round bores destroy new bearings.
Always consult the OEM service manual for model-specific torque values and procedures. WhatsApp our technical team if you need fitment guidance.
The first indication of a worn bushing is often excessive play or looseness in the joint, leading to imprecise machine control. If ignored, this wear will accelerate, causing the mating pin to wear unevenly and potentially elongating the mounting holes. The ultimate risk is the failure of the linkage connection, compromising the structural integrity and operational capability of the equipment.
Ensure the bore is clean and free of any old material or burrs before attempting to press in the new bushing. Press the bushing in straight to prevent cocking and potential damage to the bushing or bore.
When replacing this bushing, always inspect the corresponding pin for wear and consider replacing it if it shows signs of damage or excessive wear.
