Our self-lubricating composite bronze bushings are designed to
offer exceptional performance in a wide range of industrial
applications. These bushings are made from a unique combination of
(polytetrafluoroethylene) and bronze, creating a material that is
both strong and self-lubricating.
The component provides excellent lubrication properties, reducing
friction and wear, while the bronze adds strength and durability.
This combination results in bushings that require minimal
maintenance and lubrication, saving time and money in the long run.
Our bronze bushings are precision-manufactured to ensure a perfect
fit and optimal performance in your specific application. Wh you
need bushings for heavy-duty machinery, automotive components, or
any other industrial use, we have the right solution for you.
We pride ourselves on our commitment to quality and customer
satisfaction. Our products are thoroughly tested to ensure they
meet the highest standards of performance and reliability.

Quality Bushings & Bearings. Custom Self-lubricating Bearing
Solutions.
Bushings, or plain bearings, operate with sliding motion between
the moving surfaces. Bushings are selected based on the rotating
speed and the applied load. Most bushings do not require additional
lubrication to operate.
Self-lubricating bronze composite bushings consist of a layer
sintered on a brown strip. These bushings are corrosion resistant
and suitable for high temperature applications that can be made without the use of oil requiring
long duty cycles.
This type of self-lubricating bearing is used in the radial or
axial direction, especially in the steel and cement industries.
Self-lubricating -bronze composite bushings can be used in panels
as bridge supports, since the thick sliding layer on the inner
surface can withstand loads of up to 140 N / mm².

Metal-Polymer Bronze Backed Plain Bearing Bushing Characteristics
Composite Plain Bearing Dry type composite plain bearings are
mainly used in bearing assemblies where heavy loads have to be
carried and where rotational or oscillatory movements are
relatively slow.
- Very good wear and low friction performance over a wide range of
loads, speeds and temperatures in dry running conditions
- Suitable for lubricated applications
- Suitable for linear, oscillating and rotating movements
- Bronze back offers improved corrosion resistance in humid/saline
environments

Application areas
This type of bearing is used radially or axially, particularly in
the steel and cement industries.
Industrial: agricultural equipment, construction equipment, material handling
equipment, forming machines - metal, plastic and rubber; office
equipment and scientific equipment, packaging equipment, pneumatic
and hydraulic equipment cylinders, pumps and motors, railways and
tramways, textile machines, valves, etc.
Other: marine and offshore equipment, other applications in water or in
outdoor environments
Bronze Backed Bushing Typical Applications
It can meet the demanding criteria of long life and trouble-free
performance with or without lubricant, especially for high chemical
resistance requirements.
The Bronze Backed bushing is widely used in steel metallurgy in
applications such as roller groove bushings of later casting
machines, concrete injection pumps and screw conveyors for
concrete. They can also be made of steel housings or be transformed
into flanged bushings that can move in both radial and axial
directions.
The Bronze Backed bushing is particularly suitable for high
temperature environments where no oil is efficient and the machine
must operate under consecutive long term conditions.
