Thrust washers andstrips

See brochure 5110 “Composite dry sliding bearings – maintenan- ce-free and space-saving” or the “SKF Interactive Engineering Catalogue”on CD-ROMor onlineat www.skf.com.SKF also supplies strip of the sametriple layer composite materials – B and M. The strip can be bent, pressed or coined to form, for example, linear guides with flat, L-shaped or V-shaped profiles or many other dry sliding com- ponents. For thrust bearing arrangements thatmake oscillating or slow rotational movements, thrust washers are avail- able made of two different triple layer composite materials:• SKF thrust washers of B material(PTFE composite), and• SKF thrust washers of M material(POM composite). The thrust washers are primarily inten-ded for applications where axial space is extremely limited and where free- dom from maintenance is required or where lubricant starvation can occur.
