Contact Supplier Copper Powder Metallurgy for Bearings:
. Copper readily forms a protective oxide film when heated in air.
. Copper readily forms a protective sulphide film with oils containing only traces
of sulphur compounds.
. Copper has a high thermal conductivity for the dissipation of the frictional heat,
thus reducing the surface temperature.
. Tin strengthens copper and hardens it sufficiently to be compatible
with unhardened steel.
. The protective Organo-tin films formed with oils have a high
desorption temperature
. Hence the copper-tin bronzes result in better bearings than the
copper-zinc brasses.
. Copper alloys usually have a face-centered-cubic structure while the
mating surface is usually a ferrous alloy with a body-centered-cubic structure.
This difference contributes to the anti-seizure characteristics of copper
alloys against iron alloys.
Overlay Plated Copper-Lead Bearings for Heavy Duty Service:
. The Copper-Lead Bearings when plated have higher load carrying capacity
than straight copper-lead alloys.
. These overlays are very soft and have excellent embeddability,
conformability and corrosion resistance without impairing higher fatigue
strength of inner copper-lead-tin alloy.
