Self Lubricating Copper Alloy Sleeve Linear Bushings Mechanical Accessories

Mechanical accessories self-lubricating copper alloy sleeve linear bushings.

Description

The bushing is a matching part used outside the mechanical parts to achieve the functions of sealing, wear protection, etc. It refers to the ring sleeve that functions as a gasket. In the field of valve applications, the bushing is inside the valve cover, and corrosion-resistant materials such as polytetrafluoroethylene or graphite are generally used for sealing.

Bushings are used in: packaging machinery, textile machinery, mining machinery, metallurgical machinery, printing machinery, tobacco machinery, forging machinery, various types of machine tools and interchangeable mechanical transmission connections.

According to the types of added alloying elements, copper alloys can be divided into three categories: brass, bronze and cupronickel. Brass is a copper alloy with zinc as the main alloying element; cupronickel is a copper alloy with nickel as the main alloying element; bronze is other copper alloys except brass and cupronickel.

Some brass, bronze, and cupronickel are widely used to make automotive radiators, heat exchangers, and components of various industrial devices that need to conduct heat quickly through or along metal. Brass, some bronzes and cupronickel are used in conveying gas and liquid systems such as condensers, pipes and valves that require corrosion resistance. Special copper alloys, such as copper brazing filler metals, are used for brazing metals, superplastic copper alloys are made into various devices by superplastic forming, and functional copper alloys are used to make coins, ornaments, musical instruments, etc. In addition, various copper alloys are also indispensable materials in the machinery industry, which are used to process various mechanical parts such as springs, fasteners, and pads.
