In industries where heavy loads, low speeds, and harsh environments are the norm, VIIPLUS Wrapped Bronze Bushings with Diamond Oil Indentations (Models 090 & 092) offer a robust, low-maintenance solution. Crafted from CuSn8 tin bronze and compliant with DIN 1494/ISO 3547, these bushings are designed to excel in construction, agriculture, and transport machinery. This article dives deep into their design, material advantages, and applications—supported by technical tables, comparative analyses, and real-world insights.
VIIPLUS bushings leverage CuSn8 tin bronze, a high-performance alloy known for its durability and corrosion resistance.
| Component | CuSn8 Composition (Model 090) |
|---|---|
| Copper (Cu) | 91.3% |
| Tin (Sn) | 8.5% |
| Phosphorus (P) | 0.2% |
| Lead (Pb) | 0% |
| Zinc (Zn) | 0% |
Key Standards:
DIN 1494: Ensures dimensional precision for cylindrical and flanged bushings.
ISO 3547: Validates performance in sliding applications under heavy loads.
VIIPLUS’s diamond oil indentation design revolutionizes lubrication efficiency.
| Feature | VIIPLUS Model 090/092 | Traditional Machined Bushings |
|---|---|---|
| Lubrication Method | Diamond indentations/oil holes | External grease grooves |
| Wall Thickness | Thin-walled (lightweight) | Thick-walled (higher weight) |
| Cost Efficiency | 20–30% lower production cost | Higher machining costs |
| Load Capacity | Up to 250 MPa | 150–200 MPa |
| Maintenance | Self-lubricating (long-term) | Frequent re-greasing required |
| Corrosion Resistance | Excellent (chemical/environmental) | Moderate (dependent on coating) |
How Diamond Indentations Work:
Lubricant Retention: Indentations store grease/oil during installation.
Gradual Release: Friction-generated heat slowly releases lubricant.
Wear Reduction: Continuous lubrication minimizes metal-to-metal contact.
| Parameter | Model 090 (Diamond Indentations) | Model 092 (Oil Holes) |
|---|---|---|
| Design | Rolled diamond pattern | Precision-stamped holes |
| Lubrication | Even distribution, long-term | Targeted flow, high-pressure |
| Best For | Oscillating motion (excavators) | Linear motion (conveyors) |
| Compliance | DIN 1494 / ISO 3547 | DIN 1494 / ISO 3547 |
VIIPLUS bushings are tailored for high-stress environments:
| Industry | Use Case | Model | Benefit |
|---|---|---|---|
| Construction | Excavator pivot joints | 090 | Shock load resistance (up to 250 MPa) |
| Agriculture | Combine harvester rollers | 092 | Dust/debris resistance |
| Transport | Heavy-duty trailer axles | 090 | Reduced weight, fuel efficiency |
| Mining | Conveyor belt systems | 092 | Corrosion resistance in humid conditions |
