Advantages of bronze bushes compared to lubricating bushes

Short cut: CuSn7Zn4Pb7-C
Material number: 2.1090
Density: 8,83 Kg / dm³
Composition: copper 81-85% / nickel to 2% / phosphor to 0,1% / lead 5%-8% / tin 6%-8% / zinc 2%-5%

Notes to characteristics and use:

  • Common and favourable red brass alloy for slide bearings.
  • With medium hardness it still has good running qualities and sufficient resistance to
  • wear and tear. It’s also suitable when non hardened shafts are used and the
  • selvedges are slightly compressed.
  • Good corrosion resistance (even in sea water).
  • Main range of applications are bearings and bearing bushes for genera
  • machine construction.
