FIELDS OF APPLICATION

Typical automotive applications include GRAPHITE IMPREGNATED BRONZE BUSHINGS for wide range of linear motions, which include but not limited as windshield wipers, window mechanisms, seat adjusters, sun-roofs and fan motors. They can also be used in a variety of smaller electric motors and household actuators, in the consumer goods industry or in general mechanical engineering applications.

LUBRICATION OF GRAPHITE IMPREGNATED BRONZE BUSHINGS

Dry lubrication of GRAPHITE IMPREGNATED BRONZE BUSHINGS with solid lubricants under certain circumstances can achieve better friction coefficients than plastic bushings and casting bearings, for instance. Also GRAPHITE IMPREGNATED BRONZE BUSHINGS with content of graphite could reduce running sounds and good running properties.

An additional lubricant enables the longer service life to be increased. 

GRAPHITE IMPREGNATED BRONZE BUSHINGS have a pore volume of between 15% to 30%, and these pores are used by oil impregnation for the bushing's entire service lifetime.
