Smooth Bore Bushings
Our range of Smooth Bore Bushings are manufactured from a UL94V-2 rated Nylon 6/6 and are designed to snap directly into your panel thanks to built in locking fingers. Often used to protect cables that are passing through a hole, the smooth central bore works to prevent damage from exposed edges as well as providing insulation and anti vibration benefits.
Unlike some of the other solutions within our 'Snap Fit Bush' range, these Smooth Bore Bushings can be used for rotating shafts.
We stock a range of options for these Snap In Smooth Bore Bushings, for mounting holes between 12.7mm and 27.8mm for panel thicknesses up to 3.2mm. If you require a custom size or colour-way not listed in the table below then please get in touch with a member of our team.
