FAQ

The main benefit is its self-lubricating property. The porous bronze structure is impregnated with oil, which is released during operation to create a consistent lubricating film, reducing friction and wear without needing external lubrication.

Typically, standard oil-impregnated sintered bronze bearings operate effectively in a temperature range of -20 deg C to +120 deg C. Performance outside this range may be affected by changes in the lubricant's viscosity.

Yes, the self-lubricating properties of sintered bronze make these bearings exceptionally well-suited for both continuous rotation and oscillating movements, helping to prevent stick-slip phenomena and ensuring smooth operation.
