    Oil-Embedded 841 Bearing Bronze Round Tubes

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Bronze. Oil-Embedded 841 Bearing Bronze Round Tubes.
    With a porous surface that releases oil over time, this bronze lubricates itself. Turn it into parts that you can't easily access to relubricate, such as bearings, well pumps, and turbine blades. The oil may burn away if temperatures climb too high, however. For extreme heat up to 700° F, consider graphite-embedded bearing bronze instead.

    Highly Wear-Resistant Machinable Cast Nylon Round Tubes

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Plastic. Highly Wear-Resistant Machinable Cast Nylon Round Tubes.
    The addition of MDS gives these tubes exceptional wear resistance along with a self-lubricating surface. They're made of cast nylon 6, making them easier to machine and better electrical insulators than other MDS-filled nylon tubes. Tubes can be used to fabricate pulleys, bushings, and bearings installed in hard-to-reach areas where adding a lubricant would be difficult. This material is comparable to Nylatron and Nycast.
    Oversized Tolerance—Oversized tubes have an oversized OD and an undersized ID for finishing to the sizes listed.

    Clear Scratch- and UV-Resistant Acrylic Round Tubes

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Plastic. Clear Scratch- and UV-Resistant Acrylic Round Tubes.
    When compared to cast acrylic tubes, these extruded acrylic tubes offer nearly the same performance at a fraction of the cost. Use them for sight gauges and protective covers. This scratch- and UV-resistant material stands up to outdoor use better than polycarbonate and maintains clarity over time.

    High-Temperature Cast Nylon Round Tubes

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Plastic. High-Temperature Cast Nylon Round Tubes.
    A good choice for making sprockets and pulleys, these cast nylon 6 tubes withstand higher temperatures and are easier to machine than standard nylon 6/6 tubes. This material is comparable to Nylatron and Nycast.

    Corrosion-Resistant 954 Bearing Bronze Round Tubes

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Bronze. Corrosion-Resistant 954 Bearing Bronze Round Tubes.
    One of the most corrosion-resistant bearing bronze alloys, 954 withstands everything from sea water to sulfuric acid. It's often turned into bearings and valve bodies for demanding environments such as salt mines. Also known as aluminum bronze. If you need similar corrosion resistance with even greater strength, consider 955 bearing bronze instead.

    Highly Machinable 936 Bearing Bronze Round Tubes

    Image of Product. Front orientation. Bronze. Highly Machinable 936 Bearing Bronze Round Tubes.
    With almost twice as much lead, 936 bearing bronze machines more easily than 932. It's often made into bearings and bushings for oil pumps and gasoline engines. Also known as modified SAE 64.
