Key Benefits of Bronze Filled PTFE
Bronze Filled PTFE combines PTFE’s low friction with bronze powder filler for superior wear resistance and heat dissipation. Key benefits include:
- Highest Wear Resistance: Offers the best wear resistance among the common filled PTFE grades, suited to continuous-duty applications.
- Excellent Thermal Dissipation: Bronze filler conducts heat away from the friction surface better than unfilled or other filled PTFE grades.
- Good Load-Bearing Capacity: Handles higher loads reliably in bushings and bearings.
- Low Friction: Retains PTFE’s naturally low coefficient of friction for smooth operation.
Bronze Filled PTFE is the preferred grade for demanding, continuous-duty bearing and bushing applications.
Common Applications of Bronze Filled PTFE
- Bushings and bearings under continuous load
- Gears and wear rings
- High-speed rotating components
- Applications requiring heat dissipation at the friction surface
- Heavy-duty industrial machinery components
