Bronze Sleeve Bearings

[djm883]

I am trying to find a manufacturer of a bronze sleeve bearing. I looked at Dodge bearings, but their capacity is only 9 kips for a 4" bore. They need to withstand a 12 kip load. Can anyone help?

Thanks,
Don

Try Bostons BEAR-N-BRONZ Series. It is an SAE660 Cast Bronze Bearing that has saved me in som high shock applications.

Since bronze bearings are limited by pressure (and velocity) not load: Get a longer bearing.

My favorite bronze bearings are from Bunting:

I like their catalog so I always spec their bearings. They have very knowledgable applications engineers also.

Here is a company (Beemer) that we used used for hard to get bearings.
