Description

Overview

Outer bush general purpose 22mm is designed for heavy vehicle trailer use where a compact bushing is needed at hanger or spider end locations. It supports the pin while allowing controlled movement between mating components. Additionally, it helps reduce metal-to-metal contact, which improves ride quality and service life. As a result, it is a practical choice for routine suspension and linkage maintenance on general purpose trailers.

Features

• 22mm length with 38mm I.D. and 48mm O.D. for compact installations
• Helps control movement between pins and housings under load
• Supports vibration reduction in general purpose trailer applications
• Suits use alongside matching inner bushes in spider end assemblies

Specifications and Materials

The outer bush fits a 38mm pin or shaft and locates inside a 48mm housing bore, so it suits many general purpose trailer hangers and spider end brackets. Additionally, the 22mm length provides a short bearing surface where stack height is limited. Material is not specified in the available manufacturer data, so you should confirm suitability against your specific installation and operating conditions. Part number: FB2202.

When planning a repair, you should still measure the existing bush and housing, then match the dimensions and style before ordering. Additionally, check pin condition and replace worn or undersized pins at the same time for best results.

Compliance and Safety

Correctly fitted outer bushes help trailers maintain predictable handling and braking performance, particularly under heavy load or rough road conditions. You should always press bushes squarely into clean, burr-free housings and avoid excessive force that could distort the bore. In addition, check associated components such as pins, brackets and welds for cracking or deformation. If any damage or unusual wear is found, remove the vehicle from service until a competent repairer has inspected and rectified the fault.

Trailer Applications

This outer bush general purpose 22mm suits a range of spider end and hanger positions on heavy trailers that require a 38mm internal diameter and 48mm external diameter bush. It is commonly used where a compact, short bush is preferred over a longer suspension bush. Furthermore, it can be paired with compatible inner bushes to rebuild worn assemblies and restore alignment. Always confirm dimensions and style against the original parts before installation.
