The role of excavator copper sleeve

What is a copper sleeve?

Excavator copper sleeve are also called copper bearings. Copper sleeves are made of various copper alloys. Copper sleeves are usually used for lubrication of mechanical parts. There are many types of copper sleeves, including self-lubricating copper sleeves, oil-free copper sleeves, oil-requiring copper sleeves, and graphite copper sleeves. Commonly used materials produced are tin bronze, aluminum bronze, brass, lead bronze and so on.

The role of copper sleeve

Copper sleeve is just a broad name. It is a component used in sliding rotating machinery to reduce friction while transmitting thrust and supporting and fixing. In some special places, it is equivalent to the function of the bearing, such as heavy load, low speed, and places with large mechanical load impact. When the lubrication is good, the life is also long. The excavator copper sleeve on the shaft acts as a bearing, also called a sliding bearing. It is a bearing that works under sliding friction and rotates relative to the shaft. Generally, it is necessary to assist the lubrication system to work or use. Self-lubricating bearings. The sliding bearing works smoothly, reliably and without noise. Under the condition of liquid lubrication, the sliding surface is separated by lubricating oil without direct contact, and friction loss and surface wear can be greatly reduced. The oil film also has a certain vibration absorption capacity.
