 Bush, Teeth Holder/Bit Holder, Bit/Teeth/RSC Cutter Wheel



Why do your trench cutter machines consume so many teeth/bits?

 Why is the cutting efficiency so low? 

Why the cutting performance is still not good after changing so many types of teeth/bits?

Do you want to reduce teeth/bit consumption to save cost?




In addition to the tooth arrangement of the cutter wheel, and the quality of the teeth/bits, many people have overlooked one point.

That is the tooth/bit seat, especially the tooth/bit bush.


Most people don't know how important bushes of RSC cutter wheel are.

In terms of consumables, this accessory is very inconspicuous. People tend to pay more attention to bit wearing, while ignoring the importance of bus of RSC bit. In fact, it plays a vital role in the cutting efficiency of RSC  cutter wheels and RSC bit.

Have you met these kind of situation ?


The bits is partially worn,not evenly. It can not cut the ground or not efficient. 

The bit life is very short. You have to replace it with new one.


If you know the role and importance of bearings, you will know the importance of RSC bushings. Bearings are an important part of contemporary machinery and equipment. Its main function is to support the mechanical rotating body, reduce the friction coefficient during its movement, and ensure its rotation accuracy (accuracy). In fact, the RSC bushing is a kind of bearing, just a sliding bearing.

In the rsc cutter wheel, the bushing not only plays the role of the sliding bearing, but also allows the bit/teeth to rotate smoothly under extremely harsh construction conditions and strength, effectively cutting, breaking and socketing  the rock, reducing friction and reducing Wear of RSC bit, bushings and gear seats. The high-quality RSC cutter wheel's bush makes the RSC bit rotate more smoothly, which can effectively reduce the eccentric wear of the RSC bit, greatly improve the cutting efficiency, reduce the loss of RSC bit and the labor and time cost of replacement, and reduce the construction cost. But most RSC bit bushes in the market are not good quality and can not meet the requirement in working, especially in hard rock condition or extremely hardrock strata. In this case, the teeth/bit consumption will increased a lot and it will also take much time to replace new bit and new bush. This is source of cost increase.


In order to help our customers reduce cost, and get excellent bush and holder for our RSC cutter wheel, we spent 3 years, invested a lot of money and after countless trials, trial-failure-re-improvement-re-test-re-failure-re-improvement...this is the essence of innovation- Constant trial and error! After 3 years of repeated rigorous R&D and testing, with the production of several tons of waste raw materials, we finally developed an excellent bush with high hardness, high wear resistance, and anti-high temperature annealing! Thanks to our engineers for their continuous efforts and dedication! This greatly improves the quality and cutting efficiency of our RSC series cutter wheels, and greatly reduces construction costs for our customers!


This is the waste material produced during our research and development and experiments in 3 years. 

There are several tons, and it is still in our warehouse as a souvenir.
