Bushings
Self-lubricating bushings
Details
Cylindrical Bushings
Bushings, also known as journal bearings, are plain bearings that enable rotational and linear motion. In addition to standard bushings, we offer custom solutions for demanding applications in terms of operating temperature, rotational speed, sliding properties, and loads.
Custom Solutions
For example:
- Geometry: Eccentric, flanged
- Self-lubricating PTFE coatings
- Dry lubricant: MoS2
- Material: Aluminum, stainless steel, titanium
- Coating: Anodizing, Zn-Ni, silver
- Dimensions:
- Inner diameter up to approx. 140 mm
- Outer diameter up to approx. 160 mm
- Lengths up to approx. 150 mm
Typical Applications
- Doors
- Cockpit
- Actuators
- Rotor head
- Interior
Technical Features
- Self-lubricating liner for maintenance-free operation
- Flange for supporting axial forces (optional)
- Temperature range: -200°C to +315°C
- For more technical details, see Technology
