Dispelling the myths surrounding polyurethane bushes
Polybush has explained why common misconceptions about polyurethane bushes are incorrect.

The most common misconception about Polyurethane bushes is that they are too hard and give a harsh or uncomfortable ride.

This simply isn’t the case.

Before a bush is created, the mechanical properties of the relevant suspension and the bush itself, including its hardness, are tested to ensure that the new product will meet, or more often than not, surpass the original OE part.

In trust, one of the key characteristics of polyurethane is the range of hardness that can be created.

During manufacturing, the hardness can be controlled based on the application and purpose of the product.
