Self-Lubricating Bearings
Self-lubricating, sintered bronze and powder-metal alloy plain bearings feature high-precision, high-load capacity – to 1,422 lb/in.2; high speed – to 30,000 rpm; high temperature – over 1,000°F; very-low coefficient of friction – 0.04; and low noise. The bearings come in 0.250 to 2.500-in. ID × 2.000-in. long and 2 to 100-mm ID × 120-mm long. Available materials include sintered bronze, iron sintered bronze, Paralite (nonmigrating lubricant), and Triboloy (chromium, nickel, cobalt alloy for temperatures over 1,000°F). Triboloy sintered bearings are resistant to corrosion, erosion, abrasion, and galling, and resistant to oxidation at high temperatures.
