GRAPHALLOY
WHAT MAKES IT WORK BETTER?

Bearings and bushings made from GRAPHALLOY, a graphite/metal alloy, provide a self-lubricating solution to difficult bearing application problems.   Graphite bushings and graphite bearings do not provide all the benefits of GRAPHALLOY.  If you have an existing application, using a graphite bushing or graphite bearing, plastic or bronze, consider the benefits of converting to a GRAPHALLOY SOLUTION.

Here are the key features and benefits of GRAPHALLOY bushings and bearings:
 

FEATURES

BENEFITS

Self-Lubricating Requires no grease or oil.  Permits continuous operation and eliminates downtime.
Hot Works at high temperatures where oil-based lubricants burn off or oxidize and plastics fail.  Operating temperatures to 1,500º F / 800º C (in non-oxidizing atmospheres).  Will not gum or seize.
Cold Does not congeal or solidify at low temperatures or cryogenic conditions.  Maintains self-lubrication.
Dry Works without lubrication.  Survives run dry applications.  Eliminates galling or seizing in hot and dry conditions.  Will not attract dust.
Wet Operates submerged.  Will not swell or wash out.  Withstands a wide variety of hostile fluids.
Dimensionally stable Does not cold flow or deform under pressure.  Maintains its size and shape.
Chemically Resistant Insoluble in most industrial liquids.  Works in acids, alkalies, hydrocarbons, water, and liquid gases.
Low Coefficient of Friction Constant, low coefficient of friction. Not just a surface layer, solid throughout.
Linear Motion Maintains lubrication during linear motion.  Lubrication is not drawn out and dust is not pulled in.
Current Conducting Eliminates sparks and static.  Conducts well.
FDA Accepted Accepted for food services. No lubrication to drip or cleanup.  Easily steam cleaned.
