PTFE Bronze Filled is the most common metal filler and it is dark brown in color. Bronze filler has excellent wear, creep resistance, and higher thermal conductivity than glass fiber with PTFE. Adding bronze in percentages 60% can increase wear PTFE resistance. PTFE Bronze-filled has poor chemical resistance in the presence of acids and alkali. PTFE Bronze-Filled is machined and used in bearings at high speeds when shafts are not hardened. It is useful in applications with higher mechanical loads and higher speeds rubbing contact points where bronze-filled supplies the strength and conductivity to carry away excess and unwanted heat. Used in hydraulic systems, superb for linear bearing, slides, guide ways, bearing rings, piston rings and wear pads., etc
Advantages:
• Reduces heat in wear applications (low friction)
• Good thermal conductivity
• Low moisture absorption
• High Tensile strength
• Easy machinability
• Creap resistance
• Excellent wear
Application:
• Linear bearings
• Hydraulic seals
• Extrusion rings
• Piston Rings
• Guide ways
• Bearings
• Bushings
• Wear pads
• Slides
