The steel-backed bronze bearing flange bushing is a low-maintenance solution designed specifically for air compressor applications. This bushing combines the strength and durability of steel with the exceptional lubrication properties of bronze, creating a reliable and long-lasting bearing component.

The steel backing provides excellent structural support, ensuring that the bushing can withstand the high loads and pressures encountered in air compressor operations. The bronze layer, on the other hand, offers superior lubrication and wear resistance, reducing friction and minimizing wear during operation.

The low-maintenance design of this bearing flange bushing means that it requires minimal upkeep and maintenance, saving time and money in the long run. The self-lubricating nature of the bronze material further reduces the need for frequent lubrication, simplifying the maintenance process.

In addition to its durability and low-maintenance features, the steel-backed bronze bearing flange bushing is also easy to install and replace. This makes it a convenient choice for maintenance personnel, reducing downtime and improving the overall efficiency of the air compressor system.

Overall, the steel-backed bronze bearing flange bushing is an ideal choice for air compressor applications that require a reliable, low-maintenance bearing solution. Its combination of strength, durability, and lubrication properties ensures smooth and efficient operation of the compressor, extending its service life and reducing maintenance costs.

Description

Rolled Dry Sliding Bearings ()
Steel + Bronze Powder + /Fibre

• Bushing material suitable for lubricated applications
• Self-lubricating bushings offer very good wear and low friction performance over a wide range of loads, speeds and temperatures in dry running conditions
• Anti-friction bearing suitable for linear, oscillating and rotating movements
• As they do not absorb oil and water, bushes have a low expansion and high conductivity rate, as well as good thermal stability. Furthermore, by using this type of bush, vibrations, noise, and pollution are significantly reduced.

Material is designed to operate without supplemental lubrication and will perform excellently when lubrication is present. Low friction, low wear rate, good sliding characteristics, and very low absorption are a few of the features of this material. VSB-10 bushings will support the rotary, linear, and oscillating motion.

1. /Fibre mixture thickness 0.01~0.03mm. It is the contact surface for the rotating shaft. Minute partides of the layer and the sintered bronze material combine to create a solid lubricant film, which coats the shaft.

2. Sintered bronze powder thickness 0.20*0.35mm,A special composition of powdered copper is thermally fused to the steel backing. This contact layer acts as an anchor for the layer and conducts the thermal build up away from the bearing surfaces.

3. Low-carbon steel backing. Setting the foundation of the bushings, the steel back provides exceptional stability, load carrying and heat dissipation characteristics.

Beyond Grease: A Deep Dive into Oilless Bushings & Why Viiplus Leads the Way

Friction is the enemy of efficiency. In countless machines, from massive industrial equipment to intricate automotive components, the constant battle against wear and tear dictates performance, longevity, and maintenance costs. Traditionally, grease and oil have been the go-to solutions, but they come with their own set of challenges: frequent re-lubrication, potential contamination, environmental concerns, and limitations in extreme conditions.

Enter the world of oilless bushings, also known as self-lubricating bearings or sliding bearings. These innovative components offer a smarter way to manage friction, delivering reliable movement without the need for external lubrication.

At Viiplus (www.viiplus.com), we don't just supply these components; we engineer solutions. Leveraging deep expertise in metallurgy and tribology (the science of friction, wear, and lubrication), we've become a leading name in sliding bearing technology. But what exactly are oilless bushings, and why should they be on your radar? Let's dive deeper.

What Exactly Are Oilless Bushings? The Science of Self-Lubrication

Unlike traditional ball or roller bearings that rely on rolling elements and require constant lubrication films, oilless bushings operate on the principle of sliding motion. Their "magic" lies in their material composition and structure, designed to provide their own lubrication at the bearing surface. This can be achieved through several key technologies:

1. Solid Lubricants Embedded: Materials like graphite, MoS₂, or PTFE are embedded directly into the metallic matrix (often bronze) of the bushing. As the shaft rotates or slides, a minuscule amount of this solid lubricant is transferred to the mating surface, creating a low-friction film.

2. Porous Metal Structures: Sintered bronze or iron materials are created with microscopic pores. These pores are vacuum-impregnated with oil during manufacturing. In operation, slight heating causes the oil to expand and seep onto the bearing surface, providing lubrication. When it cools, the capillary action draws the oil back in, creating a closed-loop system.

3. Layered Composites: These often feature a strong backing (like steel), an intermediate sintered layer (like bronze), and a low-friction overlay (often PTFE-based). The PTFE layer provides the primary sliding surface, offering extremely low friction.

Contrasting Logic: Oilless vs. Traditionally Lubricated Bearings

The Tangible Benefits: Why Make the Switch?

Choosing oilless bushings isn't just about eliminating grease guns. It's about unlocking significant operational advantages:

• Drastically Reduced Maintenance: This is the most obvious benefit. No re-greasing means less labor, less scheduled downtime, and simplified maintenance protocols. Imagine the savings across a factory floor!

• Enhanced Reliability: Lubricant starvation is a major cause of bearing failure. Self-lubricating bearings ensure consistent lubrication, leading to predictable performance and longer service life, especially in hard-to-reach locations.

• Superior Performance in Harsh Conditions: Oilless bushings excel where traditional lubricants fail:

  • High Temperatures: Certain types can operate at temperatures far exceeding the limits of conventional greases.

  • Low Temperatures: No grease means no stiffening or freezing issues.

  • Contaminated Environments: The absence of sticky grease reduces the ingress of dirt, dust, and debris.

  • Vacuum or Underwater: Ideal for applications where liquid lubricants are impractical or impossible.

• Cost Savings (Total Cost of Ownership): While the initial purchase price might sometimes be higher, the TCO is often significantly lower due to savings on lubricants, labor, downtime, and potential component failure replacement.

• Environmental Friendliness: Eliminating oil and grease leakage prevents contamination of products, machinery, and the environment. Crucial for industries like food processing, pharmaceuticals, and textiles.

• Compact & Simplified Designs: Without the need for lubrication systems (nipples, lines, reservoirs), machine designs can be more compact and streamlined.

Exploring Viiplus's Portfolio: Finding Your Solution

Viiplus offers a comprehensive range of self-lubricating bearings designed to meet diverse application needs. Understanding the different series helps in selection:

• JDB Series (Graphite Plugged Bronze): Excellent for high-load, low-speed applications, intermittent motion, and high temperatures. The graphite plugs provide continuous solid lubrication. Ideal for heavy machinery, molds, and hydraulic components.

• SF Series (PTFE-Based Composite): Typically metal-backed (SF-1: steel, SF-2: steel/bronze) with a PTFE-based lining. Offers very low friction, good wear resistance, and suitability for dry running or marginal lubrication. Common in automotive, office equipment, and hydraulics.

• JF Series (Bimetal Bushings): Combines a steel backing with a sintered bronze or lead-bronze lining. Good load capacity and fatigue strength. Often used with grease or oil but can operate marginally lubricated. Found in engines, chassis parts, and agricultural machinery.

• FB Series (Wrapped Bronze): Often made from bronze strip, sometimes with lubrication pockets or through-holes. A cost-effective solution for medium loads and speeds, typically requiring initial greasing but offering extended re-lubrication intervals.
