Wrapped bronze bearings

Bushes entirely made of CuSn8 bronze homogeneous with lozenges that allow the lubricant to accumulate initially and gradually release during operation. Especially suitable for working in dirty environments where resistance to wear and seizure is required (earthmoving machinery, agricultural machinery, excavators, tippers, etc ...).

Available in cylindrical and flanged versions.

Wrapped bronze bearings are mechanical components used in industrial settings to facilitate linear or rotational motion between two parts of a machine. They are designed to provide a smooth and wear-resistant sliding surface, reducing friction and absorbing mechanical stresses.

Features:

1. Diamond Geometry: Diamond-shaped sliding bushings have a geometric shape that allows them to withstand stresses from different directions. This shape helps distribute the load evenly on the bushing walls, improving load capacity and reducing the risk of deformations or breakage.

2. Materials: Diamond-shaped sliding bushings are made of self-lubricating materials such as sintered bronze or polymer composites reinforced with fibers. These materials have intrinsic lubrication properties, reducing friction and wear during bushing movement.

3. Wear Resistance: Thanks to the choice of materials and their structure, diamond-shaped sliding bushings offer excellent wear resistance. They can withstand heavy loads, vibrations, and high temperatures without significant damage.

4. Lubrication: Diamond-shaped sliding bushings are designed to operate without the need for additional external lubrication. The self-lubricating materials used allow smooth sliding and reduce friction between the bushing and the associated shaft or housing.

5. Noise Reduction: Due to their structure and low friction, diamond-shaped sliding bushings offer quiet operation, reducing noise and vibrations during movement.

Industrial Applications:

Diamond-shaped sliding bushings are used in a wide range of industrial applications, including:

1. Heavy Machinery: They are used in operating machinery such as excavators, cranes, presses, and woodworking machines to provide accurate and wear-resistant linear or rotational guidance.

2. Transportation Equipment: Diamond-shaped sliding bushings are found in industrial vehicles such as trucks, trains, and agricultural machinery to support frame, axle, and suspension movements.

3. Marine Industry: They are used in marine applications such as drive shafts, propeller supports, and control systems to allow rotational movement and reduce wear.

4. Aerospace Industry: Diamond-shaped sliding bushings are present in aircraft and spacecraft.
