A general purpose free-machining lead bronze. Although lower in tensile strength than phosphor bronze, it possesses good bearing properties with the ability to conform to minor shaft misalignments. The presence of lead reduces friction, running temperature and the possibility of seizure under conditions of poor lubrication. Supplied in 13in lengths Material = Leaded Gunmetal Form = Rod Length = 13in Outer Diameter = 7/8in Height = 7/8in Tensile Strength = 241 Mpa Thermal Conductivity = 33.6Btu Width = 7/8in Density = 0.322lb/in³ Suitability = Bearings, Bushings, Gears, Piston Rings, Pumps
