The DU¬Æ Cylindrical Bushes - Inch Size, specifically part number BB3516DU, are designed for a variety of industrial applications including aerospace, agricultural equipment, and food processing machinery. These self-lubricating bushings provide excellent wear resistance and low friction performance across a wide range of loads, speeds, and temperatures, making them suitable for dry running conditions as well as lubricated applications. The bushings are approved to Federal Aviation Regulations standards FAR 25.853 and FAR 25.855, indicating their suitability for use in aircraft interiors. They can accommodate linear, oscillating, and rotating movements, enhancing their versatility in different mechanical systems. The product is available in standard dimensions and can be customized to meet specific design requirements. Engineers considering this product should note its maximum dynamic load capacity of 36,000 psi and a maximum operating temperature of 536¬8F. The bushings are constructed with a metal backing, a porous bronze sinter layer, and a PTFE-based bearing lining, which collectively contribute to their mechanical strength and low friction characteristics.
Our metal-backed, PTFE-based (polytetrafluoroethy
The metal backing provides mechanical strength, while the bronze sinter layer provides a strong mechanical bond between the backing and the bearing lining. This construction promotes dimensional stability and improves thermal conductivity.
These polymer bearing linings, being predominantly PTFE, offer exceptionally low friction.
