Our R-Lube® SAE 841 Self-Lubricating powdered metal bearings and bushings are manufactured using an advanced process that ensures high quality and performance:

Blending and Shaping

The manufacturing process begins with blending metal powders to achieve the desired properties. The mixture is then shaped into the required size.

Sintering

The shaped mixture is heated to bond the particles, forming a solid and durable component.

Sizing

The part is then resized by pressing it back into a die, ensuring precise dimensions and consistency.

Oil Impregnation

Finally, the bearing is oil-impregnated to provide self-lubrication or corrosion resistance. This step ensures the bearing operates smoothly and reliably.

Temperature Range

Standard R-Lube® sizes operate in temperatures ranging from 10º F to 220º F, making them suitable for various applications.

Compliance

All R-Lube® bearings and bushings conform to ASTM standards, ensuring high quality and reliability.
