Powerflex: Performance Polyurethane Bushings
Powerflex is a highly reputable British manufacturer specializing in high-performance polyurethane suspension bushes and other automotive components. Established over 25 years ago, the company has become a global leader in its field, renowned for significantly improving vehicle handling, control, and safety. Powerflex designs and manufactures all its products in the UK, ensuring rigorous quality control and continuous innovation.

Core Business and Expertise
Powerflex’s core business is centered around replacing traditional rubber bushes in vehicle suspension systems with their proprietary polyurethane formulations. These polyurethane bushes offer several key advantages over rubber:

Enhanced Performance: They provide superior control of suspension components, leading to improved handling, steering response, and overall vehicle stability.

Increased Durability: Polyurethane is significantly more resistant to wear, tearing, and degradation from oil, fuel, and road grime compared to rubber, resulting in a much longer lifespan.

Reduced Maintenance: Due to their durability, Powerflex bushes require less frequent replacement, saving time and money on maintenance.

Improved Safety: By maintaining correct suspension geometry, Powerflex bushes contribute to a safer driving experience, especially during cornering and braking.

The company’s expertise lies in developing specific polyurethane compounds tailored to different applications within the suspension, from softer grades for road use that offer comfort with improved performance, to harder “Black Series” compounds designed purely for track and competition use.

Key Products and Applications
Powerflex offers an extensive range of bushes and mounting solutions for a vast array of vehicle makes and models, including:

Suspension Bushes: Their primary product, replacing bushes in wishbones, anti-roll bars, shock absorbers, and more.

Engine & Gearbox Mount Inserts: Designed to reduce drivetrain movement, enhancing power delivery and gear shifting precision.

Exhaust Mounts: Providing more durable and secure mounting for exhaust systems.

Black Series: A dedicated range of bushes developed for racing and track day applications, offering maximum control and durability with minimal deflection.

Powerflex products are popular among car enthusiasts, tuners, and motorsport professionals looking to upgrade their vehicle’s handling characteristics, restore worn suspension, or prepare a car for track use.
