Overview of Wrapped Bronze Bushing

Update:21 Apr
Wrapped bronze bushings, also known as wrapped bronze bearings, are a type of plain bearing that is designed to support rotational or sliding movements. They are composed of a cylindrical bronze body wrapped in a porous material such as PTFE or other polymer material.
The bronze material provides high strength and durability, while the porous outer layer acts as a lubricant, reducing friction and preventing wear and tear. Wrapped bronze bushings are commonly used in applications where high loads and low speeds are present, such as in agricultural machinery, construction equipment, and conveyor systems.
One advantage of wrapped bronze bushings is that they are self-lubricating, which means that they do not require external lubrication. This makes them ideal for use in environments where lubrication is difficult or impossible to maintain.
Wrapped bronze bushings come in various sizes and shapes, and they can be customized to meet specific application requirements. They can be easily installed and removed, making them a popular choice for many industrial and mechanical applications.
A Bronze Wrapped Bushing is a bearing that uses a PTFE layer to reduce friction between the shaft and bearing. They are used in various industries and are a cost-effective option for high-quality bearings.
Phosphor tin bronze is an alloy that is highly corrosion-resistant and has excellent machinability. It has good friction reduction properties and is suitable for high-temperature applications. It is commonly used as bearing material for a variety of industrial applications such as motors and shock absorbers.
SKF wrapped bronze flanged bushings are suitable for oscillating, rotating and linear movements. They are also able to accommodate radial and axial loads in one direction. They have diamond-shaped pockets that serve as reservoirs and progressively release lubricant during operation.
The sliding surface of an SKF wrapped bronze bushing contains a hole pattern or diamond shaped lubrication pockets that must be filled with grease before installation. These lubrication pockets help extend the service life of an SKF wrapped bronze bushing.
In addition to standard sizes, we offer a range of bronze sleeves with a wide variety of diameters and lubrication pockets. They are made from cold-formable homogenous bronze (CuSn8), which achieves exceptional material properties.
They have a high load capacity and long life. They are widely applied in hoisting machines, construction machines, automobiles, tractors, trucks, machine tools and some mineral engines. They can be fabricated into bushes, half bearings, flanged bushes, thrust washers and spherical bearings.
