Selection of a copper alloy...?
hi,
In selecting a copper alloy for a bearing (bushing) application involving sliding motion, is it best to select a bronze alloy, a brass alloy or does it not matter?
A common plain bearing design utilizes a hardened and polished steel shaft and a softer bronze bushing. The bushing is replaced whenever it has worn too much.
Common bronze alloys used for bearings include: SAE 841, SAE 660 (CDA 932), SAE 863, and CDA 954.[16]
Bronze has good lubricity, low wear, fair temperature resistance, fair strength. Well suited and commonly used for bearings.
Brass has good corrosion resistance, but not as well suited for bearings.
