The Fusion Rubber Bush is a replacement component for the Threeworlds Fusion pressure-fit connector system. These rubber bushes compress as a Fusion connector is tightened, creating friction against the inside of the staff tubing and helping hold your collapsible staff securely together.

Because the rubber bushes are responsible for creating much of the grip within the pressure-fit connection, their condition and cleanliness can have a noticeable effect on how securely your staff tightens.

How Fusion Rubber Bushes Work

As you tighten a Fusion connector, the rubber bushes compress and expand outward against the inside wall of the staff tubing. This creates the friction that helps lock the connected sections together.

The bushes work alongside Fusion Nylon Washers, which alternate with the rubber bushes inside the pressure-fit assembly.

Where Fusion Rubber Bushes Are Used

Fusion Rubber Bushes are used throughout the Fusion pressure-fit system. The number required depends on the component:

  • Fusion Staff Handle: 4 rubber bushes total, with 2 bushes at each end alternating with 2 nylon washers
  • Fusion Spin Handle: 4 rubber bushes total, with 2 bushes at each end alternating with 2 nylon washers
  • Fusion Ultra Dragon Hub: 2 rubber bushes alternating with 2 nylon washers
  • Fusion Double Adapter: 4 rubber bushes total, with 2 bushes at each end alternating with 2 nylon washers
  • Fusion Quick Release End Cap: 2 rubber bushes alternating with 2 nylon washers

If Your Fusion Connector Isn’t Tightening

If a Fusion connector feels like it isn’t gripping or tightening properly, check the rubber bushes and the inside of the staff tubing before assuming something is broken. Dust, dirt, oil, or other residue on either surface can reduce friction and prevent the pressure-fit mechanism from gripping as securely as it should.

Both the rubber bushes and the inside surface of the tube where the connector is inserted should be kept clean, dry, and free of oily residue. The bushes should also be inspected for wear or damage and replaced when necessary.

For more information on assembly, adjustment, and troubleshooting, read our Guide to Fusion Pressure-Fit Connectors.

Replacement Parts Sold Individually

Fusion Rubber Bushes are sold individually, allowing you to replace only the number needed when servicing your Fusion hardware. If you’re taking apart a connector for maintenance, it’s worth checking the bushes and nylon washers at the same time so the entire pressure-fit assembly is in good condition.

Flow toys are props and tools used in flow arts, which is a movement based art-form that involves object manipulation. Flow props are extensions of your body and tools for self expression.

Despite being called “toys”, flow toys are meant for everyone and you will find that a majority of flow artists are actually adults! Contemporary flow arts include many modalities like dance, martial arts, or just “free-flow.”

The best flow toy to start with is the one that you’re most excited to learn. Although some props might be more difficult to learn than others, this differs greatly from one person to another. We found that the more excited you are to learn a specific prop, the more likely you will be to practice and learn quickly.

Stick props like dragon staff, contact staff, or spin staff can be easier for some since its a more static prop that you can hold onto. Rope props like poi and rope dart require more plane control at the beginning but are also much easier to travel with. Others like flow stars and pixel whips have their own kind of movements that don’t really fall into the other two categories we mentioned. But they’re super popular for ravers and festival goers!

We have a feeling you’ll end up owning more than one type of prop though so regardless of what your friend thinks is the best flow toy to start with, just get whatever you’re most excited to learn!

Fire dancing carries some inherent risks, but if you follow all of our fire safety instructions the risks are very avoidable. We recommend feeling super comfortable with a flow toy before lighting it on fire for the first time.

If you’re new to flow arts, we also recommend getting a daytime practice prop (or even LED prop) since you might be dropping your flow toy a lot when you’re first learning. The Kevlar on fire props can deteriorate much more quickly from repetitive drops, so practice props are ideal to keep them safe.

We have fire, LED, and daytime versions of most of our main props. Even if you can only afford one version and end up starting with a fire prop, they can be protected with wick covers. No matter what type you have, we recommend practicing on soft ground like grass to protect them as much as possible.

After you read the fire safety guide linked above and before lighting up you fire tool, please also read through our safety disclaimer.

We ship our products Monday-Friday from Los Angeles, CA, USA. Many of our listed products are ready-to-ship unless we have to assemble them, which can add a day or two to process. That being said, we ship out orders in the order they are placed within 1-2 business days (with some exceptions like holiday seasons). 

Once shipped, we use USPS for orders in the USA and usually UPS for all international orders. Ground shipping in the US usually takes about 3-5 business days from shipping date, while priority shipping can be between 1-3 business days from shipping date. These are estimations and not guarantees as USPS might have delays, but reach out to us if you are looking for more specific time frames!

We can’t promise any specific shipping timeframes for international delivery as customs can cause many unforeseen delays.

Of course! We’re just a text, email, or DM away from being able to answer any question you have. All of our contact details can be found here or you can scroll down to find the buttons in our footer. We’re active on social media too so we are pretty easy to get a hold of!
