deva.metal® is a family of high performance, selflubricating bearing materials. The deva.metal system is based on four main groups – bronze, iron, nickel and stainless steel – each containing dry solid lubricant, most commonly graphite, uniformly dispersed within the metal matrix. Important selection criteria are the sliding speed, specic load, temperature and other application-specic inuences. deva.metal normally requires no lubrication. is suitable for translatory, rotational and oscillating movements with cylindrical guide or also for direct surface use. These movements can occur individually...

deva.glide® materials consist of highly wear-resistant copper cast alloys showing sliding surfaces with evenly provided solid lubricant plugs according to the so-called “macro distribution“ principle. These plugs are arranged according to the movement requirements. The high density of the bronze ensures high stability under load along with good dirt particle embedding properties into the lubricant plugs. Under dry running conditions, deva.glide is supplied with a 10 - 15 µm thick running-in lm which enables the solid lubricant to be transferred to the mating material at the rst contact between...

Increasing maintenance cost, the pressure of competition and the need to be environmentally friendly is leading companies to change the way bearings have been used for decades: Grease is substituted with solid lubricants which form a lm with low friction between the bearing and the mating part, thus separating them...
