Etymology
Etymology tree English bush Proto-Germanic *-ungō Old English -ung Middle English -ynge English -ing English bushing From bush (“metal lining of the axle hole of a wheel or touch hole of a gun”) + -ing.
Meanings
- A type of plain bearing, a cylindrical lining designed to reduce friction and wear inside a hole, often used as a casing for a shaft, pin or hinge.
- An elastic bearing used as a type of vibration isolator, commonly made of rubber. An interface between two parts, damping the movement and the energy transmitted.
- A threaded bushing: a fastener element that is inserted into an object, usually to add a threaded hole in a softer or thin material.
- A lining for an opening through which a conductor passes, providing insulation and mechanical protection for the conductor.
- An adapter for joining pipes of different size.
