Sliding bearings for special application HX

1. Structure

PTFE and PEEK with fillers, with or without indentations, on sinter bronze with steel backing.

2. Characteristics

⦁ Marginally lubricated bearing material with good wear resistance under thin film conditions,

⦁ suitable for use with low viscosity fluids,

⦁ suitable for use at higher temperatures,

⦁ bearing polymer lining has good chemical resistance,

⦁ good fatigue and chemical resistance of sliding layer,

⦁ peak high loads permitted also in dry conditions, but constant dry work decreases bearing efficiency and increases wear,

⦁ suitable for temperatures up to 250 °C,

⦁ lubrication indentations are constant dispensers of lubricant.

3. Applications

⦁ industrial: hydraulic motors and pumps, agricultural equipment, wind energy equipment, yaw and teeter bearings, etc.

⦁ automotive: Diesel fuel pumps, gear pumps, etc.

4. Availability

⦁ to order: cylindrical bushes, thrust washers, strips and non standard parts.

5. Technical data

6. Assembly tips

Assemble with stepped shaft in housings with insertion chamfer. Before assembly moisten housing or bush with oil. Fixture: no additional fixture is necessary after press fitting in, however gluing is permissible in special applications

or with reciprocating motion.
Caution: Do not use any lubricants containing MoS2, graphite or any other solid ingredients (can result with increased wear due to higher friction).
