Hardt 6619 Ptfe Center Shaft Bushing 1.27x1x1.25 in

Product Description

The HARDT 6619 is a PTFE center shaft bushing designed as a replacement component for commercial rotisserie equipment. Machined from polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), this bushing provides a low-friction bearing surface for the center shaft, reducing wear on both the shaft and the surrounding housing. PTFE construction resists heat, grease, and chemical cleaners common in commercial kitchen environments. The bushing measures approximately 1.27 inches in outer dimension by 1 inch by 1.25 inches, making it a compact, drop-in replacement. Installation is typically performed by commercial kitchen equipment technicians or qualified service personnel during scheduled maintenance or unplanned shaft wear repair.

This bushing is used in commercial rotisserie units where the center shaft rides through a fixed housing or bracket. It is suited for high-temperature, high-cycle applications found in food service environments. The PTFE material eliminates the need for additional lubrication at the shaft interface, simplifying maintenance intervals. Technicians typically replace this part when shaft wobble, binding, or visible bushing wear is detected during inspection or cleaning cycles.

Key Features

• PTFE construction provides low-friction, self-lubricating shaft support
• Resistant to heat, grease, and commercial cleaning agents
• Compact dimensions: approximately 1.27 x 1 x 1.25 inches for direct-fit replacement
• Lightweight at 0.04 pounds, minimizing added load on rotating assembly
• OEM-style replacement designed to restore proper shaft alignment and reduce wear

Compatibility

Referenced in supplier data as a replacement for part number 721570. Verify fitment against equipment model and shaft diameter specifications before installation.

Installation Notes

Installation should be performed by a qualified commercial kitchen equipment technician. Disconnect and lock out all electrical power to the rotisserie unit before beginning disassembly. Remove the center shaft assembly carefully to avoid damaging adjacent components, then press or seat the new bushing into the housing until fully seated and flush. Confirm shaft rotation is smooth and free of binding before returning the unit to service.
