PowerfleX PU bushing kit control arm rear upper (Honda S2000 04-09)

Powerflex PU Bushings

Polyurethane has been with us as a specialised plastic for some thirty years. However recent advances have now made it possible to engineer very special properties into this exciting material. Suspension bushes are some of the most highly stressed components fitted to a motor car. They undergo enormous strains and in the most arduous of conditions with no maintenance or lubrication.

The material they are manufactured from is a rubber compound containing natural products which deteriorate with age. It becomes softer and more pliable, resisting the forces placed on it less and less. Therefore allowing more and more movement of suspension components and offering less and less control over the suspension geometry.

This in turn causes accelerated tyre wear, braking instability and poor handling. This is the single biggest reason you can instantly tell the difference driving a three year old car compared to a showroom new one. However even new cars will benefit from POWERFLEx bushes because of their superior design they offer much more effective control of the suspension components to a much greater extent than normal rubber items.

Powerflex Black Series

For the ultimate in performance Powerflex introduce The Black Series. a new range of bushes developed for Race, Rally and Circuit use. Powerflex Black Series bushes are manufactured using a 95 Shore A compound to provide maximum control of chassis geometry.This compound can be up to 80% more resistant to load than standard rubber and 25% stiffer than our purple performance material.
