Bushes

Machining Services for Bushings:

As a national and international supplier of custom machine parts for military use, Specialty Bar Products Company (SBP) commits to meeting customers’ exact specifications and setting remarkable standards for performance in bushings for tracked vehicles. From CNC machining technology and critical non-machining steps such as straightening and stress relieving to state-of-the-art non-destructive testing (NDT) capabilities, Specialty Bar Products houses the equipment and the skill necessary for successful operation of tracked AFVs (armored fighting vehicles) during combat and transport.

Parts:

Bushings for tanks and other tracked military vehicles

Materials:

Alloy Steel 4130, Alloy Steel 5130

A. E. Group of Companies bushings that are strong yet ductile which makes them resistant to shattering, cracking, and pressure deformation. One material, 4130, is a standard alloy steel containing molybdenum and chromium. Capable of reaching higher tensile strengths, yield strengths, and hardness when water or oil quenched and tempered, alloy steel 4130 provides good machinability and meets military specifications for tracked vehicle components.

5130 is also a standard alloy steel but contains higher levels of chromium. With higher yield, tensile, and impact strengths when oil quenched and tempered, alloy 5130 is another material that meets stringent military specifications for vehicle parts.
