Plain Bearing bushes for Drive Technology

In addition to roller bearings, plain bearings are the most commonly required bearings in mechanical and equipment engineering. They typically take on a cylindrical form and operate without moving parts. Two surfaces slide past each other, facilitated by a lubricating film. RCT specializes in drive technology, including the appropriate bearing bushes, and is an experienced provider of high-quality drive elements. The inventory includes slotted plain bearing bushes made of plastic and metal, with or without a flange, often readily available. These products are primarily used in packaging machines or in the food industry.

Key Features of bushes 

Plain bearing bushes are delivered ready for installation, grease-free, and maintenance-free. Their particularly long lifespan is noteworthy, even under very high loads, and this applies even in swivel operations. The operating temperature of the bushes and plain bearings can be specified from -195 °C to +280 °C. It is important to note that they are provided with a sliding coating, with PTFE (Polytetrafluoroethylene, THOMAFLON) added as a lubricating component.

Flanged bushes and variants without a flange made of PA 6.6 (Polyamide) are ready for installation and designed for shaft diameters from 3 to 60 mm. They are low-wear with smooth shaft surfaces and sufficient lubrication. The operating temperature range is from -40 °C to +80 °C, which should not be exceeded.

Slotted or Unslotted bearing bushes?

Slotted plain bearing bushes have a longitudinal slot that allows them to easily compress or expand. This facilitates installation, especially in tight or challenging fits. The slot can also be helpful in lubricant distribution. Unslotted plain bearing bushes, on the other hand, may provide a more even load distribution and higher radial pressure resistance. However, the installation can be more demanding than with slotted bushes.

Unslotted is also the bush made of sintered bronze: These are manufactured by sintering bronze powder. They often have a porous structure that can store lubricant, allowing for continuous lubrication during operation. Bearings in them are particularly wear-resistant and suitable for applications with medium to high loads. The selection of the appropriate plain bearing bush depends on the specific application, operating conditions, and desired properties.

Plain Bearing bushes made of Sintered Bronze

Noteworthy are plain bearing bushes made of sintered bronze. They are available as flanged bushes or without a flange. They also come in various forms. For example, plain bearing bushes made of sintered bronze are presented in form J without and in form V with a flange. These are ready-to-install, calibrated, multiporous metal bushes for plain bearings that are oil-soaked and maintenance-free. They are designed for high speeds, even with frequent use. They are suitable for shaft diameters from 3 to 50 mm.

A high lifespan of the drive elements is guaranteed at a constant rotational speed, albeit without changing the direction of rotation. The operating temperature for plain bearing bushes made of sintered bronze is from -10 °C to +80 °C. It is important to adhere to these values even at higher rotational speeds. The dynamic bearing load is approximately 10 N/mm².
