Buddy Bushing
The Buddy Bushing is a corrosion resistant stainless steel bushing that is inserted into the attachment hole in the crossarm. It absorbs the sawing action between the attachment hole and hardware, therefore eliminating the need to replace the entire arm due to wear of wind-driven vibrations. Buddy Bushing increases the strength of the clevis attachment by up to 25%
