Teflon-Bronze
Teflon Impregnated Bronze Bearings are a high performing plain bearing, with a pv of 100,000 it is ideal for high load applications in dirty, dusty environments where it could additionally be subject to shock-load. The porous bronze inner structure acts as a reservoir for the very low friction solid Teflon lubricant. The lubricant transfers to the mating surface creating a Teflon film on the shaft. As the film is depleted, the relative motion draws further Teflon lubricant from the bronze layer. The bronze inner structure is bonded to a steel backing, giving a high load carrying capability and dimensional rigidity.
