HySecurity MX001694, Bushing, Bronze, 0.5 inch
The HySecurity MX001694 is a bronze bushing used as a wear surface in select HySecurity arm and mechanism assemblies. A bronze bushing helps support a pivot point, reduce metal-to-metal wear, and keep moving parts aligned under repeated gate cycles. This part is commonly ordered when an articulated arm, swing arm, or related linkage has looseness, uneven movement, visible bushing wear, or side play at the pivot. Because bushings are small parts that can look similar but have different inside diameter, outside diameter, width, and quantity requirements, the installed operator model and parts diagram should be checked before ordering. Public listings describe this bushing as 0.5 inch ID x 0.62 inch and note use in SwingSmart DC, StrongArmPark DC Articulating, and WedgeSmart DC applications where the matching quantity is required.
This is a service replacement part, so correct fitment matters more than the product name alone. HySecurity has used different assemblies across hydraulic slide operators, Smart DC operators, barrier operators, swing operators, and high-security crash products. Always compare the original part number, operator model, voltage or hydraulic configuration when applicable, connector or fitting style, and the factory parts diagram before ordering.
Compatible With
This part may be used with the following HySecurity applications when the installed operator and parts diagram confirm the match:
- Select HySecurity SwingSmart DC assemblies where the parts diagram calls for MX001694
- StrongArmPark DC Articulating arm assemblies
- WedgeSmart DC assemblies
- HySecurity pivot/linkage service locations requiring a bronze 0.5 inch ID x 0.62 inch bushing. Quantity may vary by operator: some references note SwingSmart DC uses 4, StrongArmPark DC Articulating uses 2, and WedgeSmart DC uses 1.
Compatibility should be verified before installation. Similar HySecurity parts may look close but differ by connector, hose length, switch geometry, voltage rating, gear size, lock cylinder, or operator generation.

Technician Note
Before replacing this part, inspect the surrounding assembly for the condition that caused the failure. Worn pivots, loose hardware, incorrect routing, damaged wiring, leaking hydraulic fittings, bad mating gears, or a changed lock cylinder can make the replacement part appear incorrect or cause repeat failures.
Before Ordering
- Confirm the HySecurity part number on the original part, package label, or parts diagram.
- Verify the exact operator model and generation.
- Compare connector style, hose fitting, switch arm shape, key/lock type, or mechanical dimensions as applicable.
- Check whether related hardware, seals, bushings, switches, fittings, or mating parts should be replaced at the same time.
- For electrical or hydraulic service, use a qualified gate technician if the repair involves unsafe voltage, stored energy, hydraulic pressure, or moving gate components.
Professional Advisory
Do not bypass limit switches, monitored safety devices, covers, lock hardware, or required safety circuits to keep a gate running. If the operator moves unpredictably, overtravels, leaks hydraulic oil, trips protection, or has damaged wiring, the system should be inspected and repaired before being returned to service.
Product Questions & Answers
Where is MX001694 commonly used?
It is commonly associated with select HySecurity SwingSmart DC, StrongArmPark DC Articulating, and WedgeSmart DC pivot or arm assemblies.
How many bushings do I need?
Quantity depends on the operator and the service location. Some references note 4 for SwingSmart DC, 2 for StrongArmPark DC Articulating, and 1 for WedgeSmart DC, but the parts diagram should be checked.
Can I replace only one worn bushing?
You can replace the failed bushing, but a technician should inspect the mating pin, arm, bracket, and nearby bushings for wear at the same time.
Is this a universal 1/2 inch bushing?
No. It should be matched to HySecurity MX001694 and the operator parts diagram, not only to a rough inside-diameter measurement.
What problems can a worn bushing cause?
A worn bushing can allow looseness, noisy movement, uneven arm travel, or accelerated wear on the pivot hardware.
