Well either you know what this is or you dont.
Those who know what a PB swing arm bush can do to help handeling can buy them.
Price is 9$ each. Or Rs Rs 425/- each. (RD will need two)
And when we say PB we mean PB not Steel, not brass, not Gun metal.
We have opted not to give the bushes a spiral cut because it weakens the bush. There is no need for a spiral cut. The steel insert allready has holes and spiral cuts on it to carry the lubrication. Both options where tested.
If you still insist we can put in a spiral cut.

Also as to the process of making the bushes. There are 3 ways of doing it. From cheapest and worst quality to the best.
1. Cast the bushes in PB. The machine to final size.
Advantages: Cheap cheap. Least ammount of metal wasted. Least ammount of time to machine. Problem is metal becomes porus and granular looses strength.

2. Cast or buy the metal as a pipe.
Again least ammount of wastage. But metal structure is compromised.

3. Machines from solid block / cylinder.
Very costlly, lotsa metal wasted. Lot of time and effort taken shaping from a block.Best structural strength and integrity.

Needless to say we have opted for option 3.

do you know much about the thermal properties of phosphor bronze ron? I've just bought some new pots and they appear to have phosphor bronze as part of the base. (sorry it's a bit off topic)
it's sandwiched between two layers of stainless steel
