Metal products, especially those used in complex mechanical structures, must have increased quality requirements. The quality attributes of such products are the following parameters: resistance to corrosion, durability when exposed to prolonged load, the ability to function normally under the influence of extreme temperature conditions and high humidity. Therefore, bimetallic alloys, which have absorbed the properties of two different metals, have now gained great popularity on the market. Bimetallic alloys are developed by NTV https://www.ntf-ntv.ru/uslugi /izgotovlenie-bimetallicheskikh-stalebronzovykh-detaley.php where you can order steel bronze bearings.
Where bimetallic materials are used
Due to the layered structure of the bimetal, it can be used in those areas where resistance to corrosion and mechanical damage plays a very important role. In the electrical industry, bimetallic compounds are used to produce conductors and contacts. Such products are characterized by high electrical conductivity. Bimetal is also successfully used for the manufacture of cutting tools with high abrasion resistance.
Production of plain bearings based on bimetals
Steel-bronze connections are made by welding bronze on a layer of steel using an electric arc method. A layer of tin-phosphorous bronze reliably protects the bearings from corrosion. Wear of bronze under continuous bearing load is significantly less than when using steel alone. This is confirmed by tests carried out by the Scientific and Technical Firm NTV.
