About this part
What it is and why it is made that way
Bronze is the classic bearing material, and the lost-wax process holds the small dimensions that bronze parts depend on — the bore of a bushing has to be accurate or it will not take a shaft. The casting is machined after the pour, so the tolerance comes from the machining rather than from the mould.
- Lost-wax process holds the fine detail in small parts
- Bore machined after casting to the specified fit
- Bronze grades CuSn10 and CuZn37, with material certificate
- Machined and polished surfaces available
