Motor Grader Copper Groove Component – Location and Dimension Guide
The legacy name “cooper slot” is ambiguous and likely refers to a copper or bronze grooved wear component. This page therefore avoids inventing a function and explains how to identify the part from its location and geometry.
Ordering basis: Identify the exact assembly and measure every diameter, groove and locating feature; the old product name alone is insufficient.
Evidence required for a reliable match
Photograph the component installed and removed.
Record all stamped or cast markings.
Measure inside diameter, outside diameter and thickness.
Measure groove width, depth, position and oil holes.
Inspect the mating surfaces
Scoring, smearing, heat colour or embedded debris can indicate inadequate lubrication, misalignment or contamination. Inspect the shaft, housing and oil path together.
Installation without forced fit
Confirm the specified clearance or interference from the service data. Keep oil holes aligned, protect soft metal surfaces and never force a component onto an unmatched journal.

FAQ
Is this definitely a bushing?
The original record does not prove the function. Confirm its installed location and mating parts first.
Why is material not stated as a grade?
No verified alloy specification is present, so the page does not invent one.
What dimensions are essential?
Inside and outside diameters, thickness, groove geometry, holes and locating features.
Compatibility note: Final identification depends on assembly location and measured geometry.
