The program will now automatically drop bushing solutions with torque ratings that are inappropriate and notify the user to “Evaluate peak torque applied to the bushing” to verify acceptability of the application for bushing solutions that are marginal. The enhanced web-based tool works on PC, tablet or Mac platforms.
