Composite slide bearings are a type of bearing commonly used in the field of mechanical engineering. Made from Composite Slide Bearing (polytetrafluoroethylene), they are characterized by their low coefficient of friction, high wear resistance, and chemical inertness. These bearings are typically employed to minimize friction between mechanical components, thereby enhancing the efficiency and lifespan of mechanical systems.

Our CompositeBushings are available in a variety of styles and sizes, ready for immediate shipment. These bushings feature a tri-layer construction: a robust steel mantle, a middle layer of sintered bronze, and a top coating of PTFE/lead material, ensuring durability and efficiency.

Composite slide bearings utilize polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), for their sliding surface to manage lateral and/or axial shifts in structures due to thermal, seismic, or differential forces. These bearings are optimized for high-load, low-speed conditions. The self-lubricating feature of PTFE is crucial, minimizing friction and wear, while eliminating stick-slip motion that could harm the structure.

Filler Added PTFE Layer PTFE Bearing, Bushes and Composite bearing: This top layer incorporates fillers into polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), enhancing its mechanical properties and wear resistance while maintaining its low friction characteristics.

Sintered Bronze Layer: Positioned beneath the PTFE layer, this bronze sintered layer acts as a substrate, providing a robust structure and aiding in the distribution of load and transfer of heat.

Steel-backed Metal Layer (Low Carbon Steel: Tin Plating): The foundational layer is made of low carbon steel with tin plating, offering structural integrity and resistance to corrosion.

Allowable Temperature Range: The composite material is engineered to operate efficiently within a broad temperature spectrum, from -195°C to 280°C, accommodating various environmental conditions and applications.
