Our Manufactured High-Quality Sintered Bearings
BLUE has a professional R&D team that constantly develops innovative sintered bearings. And below are some of our produced powder metallurgy-made bushing by application and forms.
Sintered Bronze Bush
In order to obtain a higher oil content, the density of the powder metallurgy sintered bronze bushing is generally 5.8~6.2g/cm3.
Sintered Bronze Bearings
The oil content of the powder metallurgy sintered bronze bushings is generally controlled between 15% and 18%, which can play a self-lubricating role.
Sintered Iron Bushings
The raw materials of powder metallurgy sintered iron bushings are mostly pure iron powder, or 1%~3% copper is added to improve the compressibility.
Sintered Brass Bushing
The sintering temperature of powder metallurgy sintered brass bushing is generally 750~780 degrees Celsius, and the lubricant must be completely removed.
Sintered Metal Bushing
Powder metallurgy sintered metal bushings mainly include iron, bronze and copper-iron materials, such as: F-0005, FC-0205 and CuSn10.
Oil Impregnated Bearings
Oil-impregnated bearings are self-lubricating bushes made by powder metallurgy technology, and the oil in the pores will flow out automatically.
Flanged Oilite Bushings
The flanged oilite bushings have an extra step to fix the position of the bushing, and its lubrication function is the same as that of ordinary bushings.
Sintered Bronze Sleeve Bearing
The sintered bronze sleeve bearing process mainly includes forming, sintering, vacuum oil immersion and sizing, and BLUE strictly controls each step.
Sintered Bearing
BLUE has more than 10,000 models of standard sintered bearing of iron and bronze materials, all models can provide free samples for testing.
How It Works
The sintered bushing is also known as a sintered bearing. This type of bushing has a self-lubricating capacity – supporting specific applications.
It’s called oil-impregnated since lubrication fills their pore structures. When in use, these oils will film all over the surface. But remain in the bushing pores if they on used.
Although they are self-lubricated, the oil supply is also ideal for protection. This feature enables the sintered bushings to perform efficiently at high-frequency applications.
Advantageous Features
The sintered bushings have features that make them excellent for use.
- Lifelong Lubrication: The sintered bushings have impregnated lubricants that can last for prolonged service usage.
- No Maintenance Needed: Sintered bushings don’t need maintenance because they can produce the necessary fluids for operational flow.
- Maximum Precision: All bushings provide excellent precision capabilities for regular and custom-required functions.
- Low Friction Coefficients: With depot and self-lubricants, its functionality is at optimum performance and high endurance.
- Accredited Certifications: They are all accredited with quality approval of ISO 14001, DIN EN ISO 9001, IATF 16949, and OHSAS 18001.

Manufacturing Process
There are involved six stages of procedures in the manufacturing of sintered bushing. The process starts with raw materials by turning them into a powder.
After that, the next phase is mixing powder to its required exact proportions. That will enable the creation of forming a blank powder.
Compression molding comes following. Materials are then loaded for molding after the mixing procedure is complete. It undergoes compression by intense pressure to achieve the desired shape, density, and form.
However, sintering performs this function for complex structures.
Dimensioning, the fifth process, increases dimensional accuracy. It involves putting pressure on the mold once more. Post-treatment is conducted for the final step, if necessary.
This last step in producing sintered bushing improves the mechanical part’s durability.

Frequently Asked Question
Considering several factors when selecting sintered bushings is essential. Here are the primary point suggestions.
- Ensure the material choice, dimensions, oil rates, and shapes.
- Verify the included services supplied if an item needs specific specs.
- Most importantly, take note of the tolerance, assembly procedure, and other relevant parameters required to receive package customizations.
Lubricants are the critical component that impacts a sintered bushings lifespan.
They must be compatible with the chosen oil to support their viscosity, temperature behaviour, and startup wear.
If all of these conditions are maintained, it lasts for decades.
The price of sintered bushings relies on their demand features.
For a lower price, order in bulky quantities to receive a factory price at MOQ.
For example, if the size is Φ10*Φ5*10mm and purchased 1,000 pieces in iron material – each will only cost $0.025/pcs.
Although both bushing types provide excellent performance, they differ in working functionality.
For instance, the sintered bushing structure enables them to hold oils for working, but polymers don’t require lubrication.
They can freely operate, no matter the sort of movement.
