Cast bronze bearings, flanged bearings, split bearings, made to order machine parts and bronze wear plates are available with oil grooves, grease grooves, graphite grooves and graphite plugs for lubricity. Our bronze bearings, bearing cages and wear plates are available in a variety of copper alloys. Copper alloy materials available range from bearing surfaces to wear and abrasion resistant surfaces.

*Double loop groove & double figure eight groove recommended for grease only

Grease grooves are typically wider and deeper than oil grooves. This is to hold a supply of grease and to provide for the thick grease to be forced in.

Oil grooves typically vary in width but are shallower than grease grooves. Most oil grooves are operating in a constant loss or closed oiling system that continually feeds the less viscous oil to the grooves.
