SuperPro is an innovative Australian manufacturer of automotive polyurethane bushings and parts based in Brisbane, Queensland. These specially formulated, high quality components are designed to create suspension solutions for better stability, handling, and control in both on and off-road applications.
In 1983, Graham Scudamore-Smith and founding company Fulcrum Suspensions embarked on the process of combining cast polyurethane with the manufacture of their very own bushes. By 1985, after ongoing problems with wear and tear of leaf spring bushes, the company started to design and produce SuperPro Bushes for the emerging 4X4 market.
Installing SuperPro Polyurethane Bushings into your vehicle will achieve several benefits including:
SuperPro Bushings are made from a proprietary polyurethane mix that has been meticulously tested and refined over 40+ years to suit Australia’s harshest conditions. This unique polyurethane elastomer is a class of thermosetting synthetic polymer that involves the reaction of various types of isocyanate resins with curing agents. This creates an extremely durable material with the best features of both rubber and plastic.
SuperPro Bushings can be used in strut bars, radius rods and trailing arm locations. The use of SuperPro Bushings in these products will improve the road holding, handling and tyre wear of any passenger or 4X4 vehicle. This is possible because all SuperPro products have been designed to achieve consistent tyre to road alignment, particularly under braking and cornering loads. In many cases, there is little to no effect on NVH (noise, vibration, and harshness) as a result of careful design by our Research and Development Technicians.
All SuperPro Bushing designs incorporate the latest technology and are created for specific applications. This enables us to produce a bushing that is a precise fit with a long product life and maintains correct steering geometry of the vehicle. The SuperPro control arm, trailing arm and lateral arm bushings are produced with a cotton-reel design. This particular design works best in these areas as it allows the primary focus of the bush to be stabilizing the movement in the vehicle’s control arms. This design also proves necessary to restrict the displacement of the bush once fitted. SuperPro have the widest range of bushes for all suspension needs of a vehicle including shackle style bushes, sway bar bushes and diff bushes. Adjustable bushes or caster off-set bushings have offset tubes to adjust Camber and Caster. In some cases, these bushings can provide Caster correction in non-adjustable suspension.
