Description

When cotton season arrives and your picker bars are spinning hundreds of spindles through thousands of plants, you need every component working smoothly. These rear flanged bushings are critical wear components in the spindle nut assembly that keep everything spinning true and picking clean. If you’ve noticed spindles getting sloppy or cotton grades dropping, worn bushings might be the culprit.

What You’re Getting

Precision-fit flanged bushing designed specifically for the rear position in spindle nut assemblies
PickSmart quality construction that handles the high-speed rotation and constant debris exposure
Proper clearances to maintain spindle alignment while allowing smooth rotation
200-piece package so you’ve got enough for multiple repair sessions during cotton season

Built for Real Cotton Picking

These bushings work in the spindle nut assemblies that mount your picker spindles to the rotating drums. Every time you go down a cotton row, those spindles are turning at high RPMs while dealing with plant debris, moisture, and the mechanical stress of pulling cotton from the burr. The rear flanged design provides critical support and alignment for the spindle assembly.

Made to Last

Cotton picking is tough on equipment, especially the fast-moving parts like spindle assemblies. These bushings are manufactured to handle the constant rotation, debris, and field conditions that come with cotton harvest. The flanged design distributes loads properly and resists the wear that comes from thousands of acres of picking.

Good to Know

Replace bushings when you’re servicing spindle nut assemblies—it’s much easier to do the job right when everything’s apart. Keep a supply on hand during cotton season since worn bushings can affect picking efficiency and cotton quality. Clean the spindle housing thoroughly before installing new bushings to remove any debris or old lubricant buildup.
