Product Overview
A custom rubber bush for chairs provides a shaped interface within a chair assembly. Its bore, outside profile and length can be developed around the mating components, with hardness, compound and color chosen for the intended design. The bush should be selected for its actual location rather than assumed to be a floor contact tip.
Identify the parts that locate against the bore and outside surface. Their spacing determines where the bush sits and whether its ends remain exposed or enclosed. Fastening can change that spacing, so check the installed condition instead of assessing only the loose parts. The connection should reach its intended position without slicing a rubber edge or pushing the bush out of its seat.
Inspect the assembled chair for displacement at the connection during normal movement. If the bush works loose, check the surrounding hardware and seat dimensions before choosing a harder replacement. Keep cleaning agents compatible with both the rubber and the furniture finish, and use a replacement that preserves the original installed spacing and required contact geometry.
- Material options
- Rubber. Custom formulation and color for the intended contact conditions.
- Hardness selection
- Rubber: 30–90 Shore A. The connection should reach its intended position without slicing a rubber edge or pushing the bush out of its seat.
- Custom dimensions
- Fastening can change that spacing, so check the installed condition instead of assessing only the loose parts.
- Fit & assembly
- A custom rubber bush for chairs provides a shaped interface within a chair assembly.
- Use & inspection
- Keep cleaning agents compatible with both the rubber and the furniture finish, and use a replacement that preserves the original installed spacing and required contact geometry.

Ordering this custom component
Can the shape be adjusted to my mating parts?
Yes. Show the receiving opening, contact surfaces and clearance limits. We can review the dimensions and retaining features around the intended fit.
Which details should be agreed before tooling?
Agree the critical dimensions, material, hardness, visible surfaces and sample requirements. Explain how the part is installed and which interfaces control its function.
Can a sample help define the replacement?
A sample can help explain the structure. Compare it with the assembly because wear, swelling or compression may have changed its original dimensions.
How is the quotation for this part determined?
The material, part geometry, tooling, quantity and finishing affect the quotation. Include the intended batch size and delivery destination when describing your requirements.
