Polyurethane bush myths: “They’re too expensive” – hear how motorists save money
Polybush has explained why common misconceptions about polyurethane bushes are incorrect.

In the second of a three-part article, Polybush looks at another frequently mentioned myth…“Polyurethane bushings are too expensive.”

Polyurethane bushings are resistant to water, grease, ozone and road damage and will outlive rubber bushes by a considerable amount, the company said.

Huge longevity

They are referred to as “fit and forget” products due to this longevity.

The company’s bushes have a long service life and their performance does not degrade over time and, due to this, do not need replacing like the rubber equivalents – making Polybush a cost-saving option.

Premature bush wear

An example of the cost-saving potential is a solution created for West Midlands Ambulance; the vehicles were suffering from premature bush wear and the bushes were not available to buy separately.

Due to this, full replacements of anti-roll bars and leaf springs were being carried out on a regular basis.

Cost saving

Once the need of full replacements was clarified, a cost saving of £700 on parts alone per vehicle became possible.

If you are new to polyurethane bushings and are unsure of what hardness to choose, Polybush has recommended using its website as a guide and can recommend the relevant bush required for different applications.
