Bushings-Torque Limiters

Metal bushings, also known as torque limiters, are cylindrical components that improve efficiency and minimize noise and vibration in equipment with rotating or sliding shafts. They ensure smooth operation in a range of high-impact, high-load applications, from heavy-duty agricultural equipment to automotive mechanical assemblies. For optimal performance, metal bushings require accurate design specifications, careful material selection, and precision machining or stamping techniques.

At Keats Manufacturing, we provide standard and custom bushings made from high-quality metals, alloys, and composite materials. Capabilities and certifications that distinguish us from our competitors include:

• State-of-the-art technology: Using four-slide/multi-slide stamping press technology, we form and shape high volumes of metal parts with exceptional accuracy and efficiency. This process is ideal for the cost-effective production of small, high-precision metal components such as bushings. We also utilize CAD/CAM software, EDM techniques, and state-of-the-art CNC machines to make sure each product meets exact customer specifications.
• In-house tooling & dies: With our in-house tooling and die-making capabilities, customers can easily and quickly modify designs without increased wait times or added costs. Having complete control over the tooling process also allows us to provide shorter turn-around times and higher-quality parts.
• ISO-certified facilities: To better serve our customers, we utilize three full-service facilities that are each certified to .
• Cost-effective production: With efficient metal forming techniques such as four-slide stamping, we can facilitate high-volume orders while keeping production expenses low.
• Just-in-time delivery: Our efficient MRP system allows us to accurately align with our customer’s production schedules to provide everything from custom labeling to digitally updated stock levels as close to the time they are needed.
