Tight-Tolerance 932 Bearing Bronze Bars
- Yield Strength: 20,000 psi
- Hardness: Rockwell B25 (Soft)
- Temper: M07
- Heat Treatable: No
- Specifications Met: ASTM B505
Precision ground on the top and bottom, these bars have a tight thickness tolerance of ±0.002". Offering excellent antifriction qualities, 932 bronze also offers good strength and wear resistance. It's also known as SAE 660 and is often used for bearings, bushings, and thrust washers.

Oil-Filled 840 and 841 Bearing Bronze Sheets
- Yield Strength:
840 Bearing Bronze: 7,000 psi
841 Bearing Bronze: 11,000 psi - Hardness: Not Rated
- Temper: Not Rated
- Heat Treatable: No
- Specifications Met: ASTM B438
Powdered bronze is pressed and then impregnated with SAE 30 oil to make this material self-lubricating. Use it to make bearings and parts for hard-to-reach areas that would be difficult to access for lubrication, such as well pumps and turbine blades.

Breakaway Shim Plates
These thick shims are scored to make size adjustments easy—break off the excess shim for a custom fit around fasteners or corners. Unlike wood shims, these plastic shims resist moisture and won’t rot. Use them to align cabinets, doors, and windows, or for other rough leveling.

End Supports for Lead Screws and Ball Screws
A set of ball bearings reduces friction and secures the end of a ball or lead screw. Note: The end of your ball or lead screw must be machined before installing it into an end support.
For technical drawings and 3-D models, click on a part number.
End supports for combined radial and thrust loads handle radial loads (perpendicular to the lead screw) and thrust loads (parallel to the lead screw).
