Material selection for shaft copper sleeve

Shaft copper sleeves are generally made of brass, bronze, copper-lead alloy, copper-aluminum alloy and other materials.

1. Brass material

Brass is an alloy of copper and zinc. It is commonly used in the production of shaft copper sleeves because of its advantages such as high strength, good wear resistance, good electrical conductivity, weldability and low corrosion resistance.

2. Bronze material

Bronze is an alloy of copper, tin and other elements. It is also one of the commonly used materials for shaft copper sleeves because of its high strength, strong wear resistance, good corrosion resistance, and high corrosion resistance.

3. Copper-lead alloy materials

Copper-lead alloy is an alloy of copper and a small amount of lead. Because of its low friction coefficient, good hardness and wear resistance, it is often used in low-speed and high-load bearing applications.

4. Copper and aluminum alloy materials

Copper-aluminum alloy is an alloy of copper and aluminum. Due to its high hardness, long-lasting wear, and strong corrosion resistance, it is also commonly used in the manufacture of parts such as shaft copper bushings.

The material selection of the shaft copper sleeve should be determined according to the specific working environment and requirements. Generally speaking, brass and bronze materials are more commonly used and can meet most application requirements.Our company can produce oil-free bearings of the above materials to meet your choice.
