Bonded bush
A bonded rubber-and-metal bush used in the swinging fork and rear suspension area of the frame.
This is a bonded bush that lives in the swinging fork and rear suspension area of the frame, per the parts books it shows up in. A bonded bush is a rubber-to-metal assembly, typically an inner and outer metal sleeve with rubber bonded between them, used to take up movement and vibration where a pivot or mounting point needs some give rather than a solid metal-to-metal joint.

Our catalog record ties this part number to frame and swinging fork figures across appearances spanning 1960 to 1968, so it's an early-to-mid production piece by the record we have. The listing tags it under an Amal part number style, but bonded bushes in the suspension area aren't a carburetor part - Amal made carbs, not frame bushings, so treat that manufacturer tag as unreliable here.
We don't have model-specific fitment spelled out in the record beyond the figure titles pointing at the swinging fork, suspension units, and chainguard area. If you're chasing this for a specific machine, give the shop a call and we'll confirm before you order.
