Plug graphite bearings are designed for applications with a constant need for lubrication in difficult-to-reach locations. Extreme pressure is applied to mechanically force graphite into the holes/grooves. Upon initiation, the shaft is coated in lubricant. Unlike traditional bearings, these offer continuous lubrication without the need for maintenance.
These bearings from Bronze Mfg are commonly used in applications that require a copper base alloy bearing material that automatically lubricates itself.
Graphite plug bearings don’t require oil or grease to operate. Rather, a graphite film forms between the surfaces to provide a mechanical barrier that provides reliable lubrication. Wear plates and grooves can also be filled with graphite to provide lubrication. Our bronze alloy bearings can be customized to meet your application’s specific requirements.
These are the reasons for choosing Plug Graphite Self-Lubricating Products:
A total self-lubricating system requires no oil or grease:
These features allow self-lubricating bearings to be used in applications where oiling is not feasible, expensive, or where grease and oil cannot be applied. Lubrication is excellent even in applications with high loads.
Excellent Wear Resistance:
Under severe working conditions, such as heavy loads, low speeds, reciprocating, oscillating, and intermittent motions where oil film formation is difficult, excellent wear resistance is obtained.
Frictional Coefficient: 0.04 to 0.2 typical:
Solid lubricants embedded in a self-lubricating system reduce friction.
Temperature ranges from -415°F to 1,100°F:
The performance is excellent both at high and low temperatures.
Chemical and corrosion resistance:
Neither water nor caustic chemicals affect performance.
Customized to Meet Your Needs:
Products with tight tolerances and high precision.
Cost Competitive:
Due to its exceptional service life, maintenance, replacement, and end-item downtime costs were reduced compared with other self-lubricating products.
