SF-1D Tin Plated Steel Backed PTFE Oilless Bushing, Anti-rust Self-lubricating Sliding Bearing for Hydraulic & Wet Environment

Product Description:

SF-1D Hydraulic bearing is developed on the basis of SF-1P and meanwhile considering the motion way of oil pump and damper. It is the substitute of and parallels in performance with abroad DP4. In addition to covering the same usage of SF-1P, SF-1D in particular, its frequently reciprocating motion with a high side force. It is a tendency to gradually replace SF-1P with SF-1D, the latter will Cover a Wide application in automobile, motor dampers,s and oil pumps, etc.

SF-1D Tin Plated Steel Backed PTFE Oilless Bushing, Anti-rust Self-lubricating Sliding Bearing for Hydraulic & Wet Environment

140 N/mm² dynamic
3.6 PV limit dry
280 °C maximum
Product Overview

The SF-1D bushing is a steel backed PTFE lined oilless plain bearing supplied with an electrolytic tin plated outer diameter, intended for hydraulic components and wet operating environments where corrosion of the bearing shell governs service life rather than lining wear. The shell consists of a tin plated steel backing, a sintered bronze interlayer, and a PTFE based sliding layer that permits dry running with a friction coefficient between 0.04 and 0.18. The tin layer forms a barrier at the housing interface, limiting rust creep under repeated wetting and drying cycles. Dynamic load capacity reaches 140 N/mm² with a maximum PV of 3.6 N/mm²·m/s dry running. Bushings are produced to drawing for inner diameter, outer diameter, wall thickness, length, chamfer, and plating thickness, with plating and dimensional records available for project documentation.

Tin Plated Backing Electrolytic tin on the outer diameter. Corrosion barrier at the housing interface and consistent press fit behavior.
Bronze Interlayer Sintered porous bronze bonds the lining to the shell and conducts frictional heat away from the contact.
PTFE Sliding Layer Filled PTFE compound for dry running, low friction, and a controlled wear rate against hardened shafts.
Edge Treatment Chamfered bore entries and controlled plating wrap at the faces to avoid coating damage during press fit.
Core Advantages

Corrosion control. Tin plating on the outer diameter limits rust at the housing interface in humid, condensing, and washdown duty.

Dry running. The PTFE lining removes grease supply from hydraulic assemblies and eliminates lubricant leakage into the wet zone.

Geometry stability. The steel backing holds bore roundness and clearance under reversing load in thin wall housings.

Press fit repeatability. Controlled plating thickness keeps interference within the elastic range of the shell for automated assembly.

Frequently Asked Questions Selection and corrosion questions from purchasing and engineering teams

Tin provides a corrosion barrier with better ductility in thin coatings than copper, which reduces cracking during press fit. Copper plating remains available where housing material or galvanic compatibility calls for it.

Yes. The PTFE lining is designed for dry running. Where seals permit film carryover, residual hydraulic fluid acts as a supplemental medium. Where the cavity is fully dry, the 3.6 N/mm²·m/s PV limit and 2 m/s speed limit apply.

The housing bore is machined to ISO H7 with a lead in chamfer. The bushing is pressed with a flat faced mandrel contacting the full face rather than the bore edge. Plating thickness is controlled so interference stays within the elastic range.

Neutral salt spray performance depends on plating thickness and exposure conditions. Test duration and acceptance criteria are agreed during project review against the target environment, and reference data can be supplied with production batches.

Replace when the PTFE lining is worn through and the bronze interlayer becomes visible, when radial clearance exceeds the assembly limit, or when plating disruption or rust staining appears at the housing interface. Intervals can be fixed during prototype validation against the actual wetting cycle.
