17 September 2009

Graphite Metallizing Corp has developed lead-free bearings and bushings for applications where possible lead contamination is unacceptable.

The family of Graphalloy no lead bronze are non-galling and dimensionally stable even when submerged, under load or experiencing wide temperature swings. Some grades of Graphalloy can withstand temperatures ranging from cryogenic to +1,000º F.
