Bushings and Hubs


SKF Bushings and hubs are made of high quality steel, with most phosphate coated or blackened for improved corrosion resistance. All SKF Bushings can be easily installed and removed with basic tools, which results in minimal downtime each time they are fitted.

For example, SKF FX Keyless Bushings are designed with a 360 degree interference fit that enable components to be easily positioned and mounted without the necessity of a keyway.

In addition, with a comprehensive range of metric and imperial bore sizes of taper and QD Bushings available, no additional machining is needed. At the same time, customers can conveniently make “off-the-shelf” purchases anytime.

SKF Bushings are available in the following variants:

  • Taper Bushings
  • QD Bushings
  • FX Keyless Bushings
  • Weld-on Hubs
  • Bolt-on Hubs

Taper bushings, QD bushings, Weld-on and Bolt-on hubs are manufactured according to established market standards and are fully interchangeable with other brands. Metric bore keyway machined according to BS 4235: Part 1 and DIN 6885. Imperial bore keyway machined according to BS 46: Part 1. Phosphate coating and blackening are used to improved corrosion resistance, excluding FX bushings.
