BIMETAL AND TRIMETAL BEARINGS

In rotating equipment there are certain sites where components move against each other. At these sites friction can lead to wear and damage of the components involved. To avoid these effects fluid film bearings are employed. A bearing has the job of transmitting power, of reducing friction and of preventing wear on expensive rotating parts. On top of this, bearings should be both economical and quick and easy to replace in case of damage.

Bimetal/Trimetal  Bearings, Bushings, Washers provide a distribution of the applied load over a relatively wide area, making it preferred type of bearing for locomotives, engines, earthmovers, compressors, turbochargers, pumps and range of other reciprocating and rotating machinery.

Esteedee offers bearings with proven materials with following properties:

• Excellent resistance to wear, fatigue and corrosion
• High compressive strength to support various loads
• High melting point to reduce creep
• Great thermal properties to ensure heat is conducted away from the bearing surface
• High resistance to fretting, scoring and seizure
• Excellent conformability and embedability
