Diameter is oversized to allow for finishing.

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.

Powdered bronze is pressed and then impregnated with SAE 30 oil to make this material self-lubricating.

An excellent alternative to oil-filled bronze, graphite-filled bronze provides dry lubrication in temperatures as high as 700° F.

Known for its ability to resist stress cracking and fatigue, 544 bronze also offers good formability and excellent machinability. It's commonly called phosphor bronze.

954 bronze contains a minimum of 10% aluminum for strength and weldability. It is also known as aluminum bronze. It's widely used for bearings, bushings, valve bodies, and worm gears. The strength of this material increases with heat treating.

Frequently called manganese brass, 863 bronze can handle heavy loads and high speeds when properly lubricated.

Commonly called silicon-bronze, 655 bronze contains more silicon than other bronze alloys, making it suitable for all types of welding.

For a good combination of strength, machinability, and weldability, choose 955 bronze.

Because 510 bronze is very strong and formable, it is the best choice for applications involving repetitive motion, such as springs and bellows.
