Metal-polymer self-lubricating composite bearings Metal-polymer self-lubricating composite materials consist of metal backing sintered porous bronze with PTFE polymer as working layer. The metal backing provides mechanical strength, while the bronze sinter layer provides a strong mechanical bonding between the backing and the bearing lining, the PTFE polymer offers exceptional low friction even under dry condition and the thermoplastic polymer is generally designed to operate with marginal lubrication. The construction promotes dimensional stability and improves the thermal conductivity. This material meets the demanding criteria for long life and trouble-free performance with or without lubrication. Main Product
Structure 1. PTFE/Fibre mixture thickness 0.01~0.03mm, provides an excellent initial transfer film, which effectively coats the mating surfaces of the bearing assembly, forming an oxide type solid lubricant film. 2. Sintered bronze powder thickness 0.20-0.35mm, provides Max. thermal conductivity away from the bearing surface, also serves as a reservoir for the PTFE-Fibre mixture. 3. Low-carbon steel, gives exceptionally high load carrying capacity, excellent heat dissipation. 4. Copper/Tin plating thickness 0.002mm, provides good corrosion resistance. Related Products
Product Features Suitable for dry running with a low coefficient of friction, low wear rate, good sliding characteristics, the transfer film created will protect the mating metal surface. Suitable for rotary and oscillating movement, high chemical resistance, lower absorption of water and reduced swelling. Also performs well with lubrication.
