Increased iron content makes these bearings stronger and more resistant to shock loads than standard oil-embedded bearings; however they operate at lower speeds.

With extra iron and filled with oil containing slippery PTFE, these bearings support heavy loads that frequently start and stop along shafts. They’re sleeve bearings, so they handle loads parallel to the shaft.

With a flexible layer of rubber sandwiched between an oil-embedded bronze bearing and rigid metal shell, these bearings reduce wear and machinery noise.

A figure-8-shaped groove provides a flow path for lubricant, distributing it evenly along the bearing’s surface.

The addition of iron and aluminum gives these aluminum-bronze bearings high strength and excellent corrosion resistance—making them suitable for use in marine and mining applications.
