What Is Graphite Plugged Bushing?

Graphite plugged bushings are a type of self-lubricating bearing designed to provide continuous lubrication without the need for additional oil or grease. These bushings are typically made from bronze and have graphite plugs embedded within them. The graphite acts as a solid lubricant, which is released during the operation of the bushing, forming a lubricating film that reduces friction and wear.
