The 95061-191 is a Piper aircraft OEM sleeve-type bushing (plain bearing) used in various fixed-wing airframe assemblies. It functions as a wear interface component that reduces friction and prevents direct metal-to-metal contact between moving structural parts such as control linkages, pivot joints, bellcranks, or mounting points.

In typical Piper light aircraft applications, bushings in the 95061 series family are used wherever a bolt or pin rotates within a structural lug or bracket. Instead of allowing wear to occur in the airframe structure itself, the bushing acts as a replaceable sacrificial surface, preserving alignment, reducing play (“slop”), and maintaining control precision over time.

This specific part is manufactured to aviation standards and is commonly made from bronze alloy or similar bearing-grade material, chosen for its low friction, wear resistance, and compatibility with lubricated or semi-dry aircraft joints. Exact material and dimensions depend on the installation location defined in the Piper Illustrated Parts Catalog (IPC).

Because bushings directly affect control surface accuracy and structural integrity at pivot points, wear limits are typically specified in maintenance manuals. Excessive elongation, scoring, or corrosion requires replacement to maintain airworthiness.
