Bushings provide sliding contact surfaces and are simpler/cheaper, suitable for low-speed applications. Bearings use rolling elements for lower friction and higher precision, ideal for high-speed or heavy-load hinge operations.
Lubrication intervals depend on operating conditions: light duty - annually, moderate duty - quarterly, heavy duty - monthly. Use manufacturer-recommended lubricants compatible with the material.
Not without redesign. Bushings require different housing designs and clearances than bearings. Substitution affects load capacity, friction characteristics, and maintenance requirements.
