FAQs
Are these bushes sold individually or as a pair?
Please check your specific purchase order, as these are typically sold by unit. It is recommended to buy two if you are replacing wheels on a single axle.
Can these be used for automotive purposes?
No, these are strictly designed for garden trolleys and light utility carts; they are not intended for high-speed or automotive vehicle use.
What is the exact outer diameter of the bush?
The outer diameter is 35mm (1.38 inches), designed to fit standard garden trolley wheel bores.
Will these bushes rust if left outside?
No, as they are manufactured from high-quality plastic, they are immune to rusting or corrosion from moisture.
Does the total width include the lip?
Yes, the total width including the lip is 16.6mm (0.65 inches), while the width excluding the lip is 13.7mm (0.54 inches).
Troubleshooting
Bush is too loose in the wheel bore
Verify the wheel bore is exactly 35mm; if the bore is worn or oversized, the bush may require a shim.
Wheel is difficult to push onto the axle
Check the axle for burrs or rust and apply a small amount of silicone-based lubricant to ease installation.
Pros and Cons

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Compatibility Checklist
- Check your current wheel bore is 35mm.
- Verify your axle diameter is exactly 26mm.
- Inspect the hub depth to ensure it accommodates the 16.6mm total width.
Maintenance
- Periodically inspect the bushes for signs of cracking or excessive wear.
- Keep the axle clean and lightly lubricated to prevent friction buildup between the bush and the metal axle.
