Our bearing has characteristics like self-lubricating properties, high-temperature stability up to 300°C, low thermal expansion, and resistance to react with chemicals and solvents, and thermal conductivity. Resin or metal is properly impregnated into the pores of carbon material in order to improve strength, to keep low permeability and to hold suitable lubricating surface conditions. They are used with low-viscosity and corrosive liquids and in numerous applications of the industry.
Our Hydrodynamic thrust bearings are developed with a supporting fluid film, which help achieve higher PV values.

In carbon thrust bearings, Carbon does increase in strength with an increase in temperature. However it must not exceed the maximum operating temperature of the materials. Longer life will also be obtained because our segments (mating materials) are ground, lapped and polished to acheive 2 to 3 light bands.
The mating parts are made of stainless steel for better performance. Carbon runs against most of the other common materials, like ceramic etc. Running against these materials will give carbon a better performance. Heat treated steel materials of pivot shoes with polished surface are ideal mating parts for our carbon thrust bearings. Lakshmi Carbons’ resin-impregnated carbon materials, in wet running conditions, can withstand relatively higher Pressure Velocity as compared to other materials. |
