A bushing assembly is disclosed and includes a bushing that can have an outer surface and an inner surface that can define an opening. The bushing can be configured to fit into a bore and receive a shaft through the opening. The bushing can include at least one flange. The flange can include at least one void. The void can be adapted to prevent an engagement torque, T, between bushing and the shaft from increasing more than twenty-five percent as an interference fit between the bushing and the bore increases. The interference fit can be quantified by a reduction in outer radius, I, by at least 0.025 mm. |
