Frequently Asked Questions

The overrun device is the component between the coupling and the drawbar. Typical signs of wear:

  • Defective shock absorber on the overrun device: The trailer sways noticeably when braking and setting off; the combination feels unstable. A leaking or oil-soaked shock absorber clearly needs replacing.
  • Drawbar stiff or worn out: If it can only be pushed in with a jerk or has noticeable play up and down, the bearing sleeves or drawbar are worn. Replacement: Bearing sleeves and drawbars.
  • Torn bellows: Water and dirt penetrate through the tear — and this is precisely what subsequently ruins the bushings and drawbar. A torn bellows is a minor issue, but the resulting damage can be costly. Therefore, check the following during your annual inspection: bellows.
  • Handbrake lever: If it is too easy to pull, no longer holds, or the spring has lost its tension, the trailer will no longer be reliably secured when stationary. Replacement: handbrake lever.

Rule out the simple causes first: before replacing the entire overrun braking system, check the brake cables, linkage and adjustment. Weak braking performance is far more often caused by stiff cables than by the overrun braking system itself.

Repair or replace completely? Replacing individual parts is worthwhile as long as the drawbar itself is in good condition. If it is warped, heavily rusted or worn out, replacing the entire overrun braking system is the better option — when you add up the cost of the individual parts, the total is often in the same ballpark anyway.

Product Overview

Bearing bushes play a crucial role in reducing friction and wear between moving parts in mechanical systems. Whether referred to as bearing sleeves, bushing inserts, plain bearings, or shaft bushings, these components are engineered to provide reliable support and smooth operation in various overrun devices. Their robust design ensures that machinery runs efficiently, minimizing downtime and maintenance requirements. Bearing liners further enhance the durability and performance of these essential parts, making them a preferred choice for demanding applications.

Key Features & Benefits

High-quality materials and precise manufacturing techniques result in bearing bushes that offer exceptional resistance to wear and deformation. The use of bearing sleeves and bushing inserts helps extend the lifespan of shafts and housings, reducing the need for frequent replacements. Plain bearings and shaft bushings are valued for their ability to operate quietly and efficiently, even under heavy loads. Bearing liners add an extra layer of protection, ensuring consistent performance and reducing operational costs over time.

Selection Guide

Choosing the right bearing bush depends on the specific requirements of your overrun device. Consider factors such as compatibility with your equipment, load capacity, and environmental conditions. Our range includes solutions for various overrun device types, making it easy to find the ideal match for your needs. For optimal results, ensure that the selected plain bearing or shaft bushing aligns with your system's specifications and intended use.

Applications

Bearing bushes are widely used in mechanical assemblies where reliable shaft support and low friction are essential. Common applications include overrun devices for trailers and other equipment, where bearing sleeves and bushing inserts help maintain smooth operation. These components are suitable for both light-duty and heavy-duty uses, offering versatility and dependable performance across a range of industrial and automotive settings.
