Bush Red Flange

Bush Red Flange is a specialized component that combines the durability and wear resistance of Bush material with the excellent lubrication and non-stick properties of red (Polytetrafluoroethylene). This flange is designed for use in high-performance applications where both mechanical strength and chemical resistance are crucial.

The Bush material, known for its toughness and ability to withstand heavy loads, forms the base of this flange, providing a robust and long-lasting foundation. The red coating, on the other hand, enhances the flange's lubrication characteristics, reducing friction and wear, and enabling smoother operation.

The combination of these two materials makes the Bush Red Flange an excellent choice for use in industrial equipment and machinery, particularly in those areas where friction and wear are a significant concern. Wh it's used in pumps, valves, or other fluid handling systems, this flange is sure to deliver reliable performance and enhance the overall efficiency of the system.

Moreover, the Bush Red Flange is easy to install and maintain, making it a convenient addition to any industrial setup. Its red color also allows for easy identification and replacement when necessary.

In summary, the Bush Red Flange offers a unique solution for reducing friction, wear, and maintenance requirements in industrial applications. Its combination of Bush durability and red lubrication properties ensures reliable and efficient performance, making it a valuable addition to any industrial equipment or machinery.

Typical applications

RED FLANGE BUSHING mainly used in the automobile suspension system, shock absorber, steering booster pump, steering system, gearbox, etc. It can be used in hydraulic motor, gear pump, plunger pump, vane pump, cylinder guide sleeve, and logistics machinery, etc.

Designed for high speed, medium, and high load conditions under fluid lubrication, the lipophilic fibers in the surface working layer improve their performance under fluid lubrication. Such materials have good resistance to cavitation corrosion and fluid corrosion, which can meet the design requirements of higher PV values.

Material organization:

1./ oleophilic fiber mixture is 0.01~0.03mm, with low friction factor and wear resistance, providing self-lubrication performance of the bearing.
2. Copper powder layer 0.20~0.35mm, with good bearing capacity and wear resistance, good thermal conductivity can timely transfer the heat generated during the operation of the bearing. The composite penetrates into the pore of spherical copper powder and improves the bonding strength.
3. Low carbon steel provides excellent bearing performance and heat transfer.

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.

• 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.
