Self-Lubricating Bearings

Self-lubricating bearings hold oil in their pores, releasing it under load so they run without external lubrication. Huaxiao delivers self-lubricating bearings as part of our ISO 9001:2015 certified Powder Metallurgy capabilities — from rapid prototyping to high-volume production, with full dimensional inspection and material certification on every order.

Self-Lubricating Bearings - precision self lubricating bearings by Huaxiao, ISO 9001:2015 certified metal manufacturing

What Is Self-Lubricating Bearings?

Self-Lubricating Bearings compacts metal powder in a die and sinters it to bond the particles, forming complex, near-net shapes in one press stroke. Huaxiao’s Self-Lubricating Bearings is ideal for high-volume, tight-tolerance components.

Because the die defines the geometry, features like teeth, hubs and oil grooves are formed directly — with almost no scrap. We add sizing, coining and secondary machining to hit final specs.

Our Self-Lubricating Bearings Capabilities

Backed by 15+ years of precision manufacturing experience and a vertically integrated workshop:

Complex Near-Net Shapes
Our Self-Lubricating Bearings forms intricate geometries in a single compacting step.
Self-Lubricating Options
Porous structures can be impregnated for maintenance-free bearing performance.
High-Volume Economy
Tooling amortizes quickly, making PM ideal for large production runs.
Secondary Ops Included
Sizing, coining, heat treatment and machining available in one flow.

How Self-Lubricating Bearings Works

From drawing to finished part, our Self-Lubricating Bearings process follows four controlled steps:

1
Powder Blending
Metal powders are mixed with lubricant and additives for flow and properties.
2
Compaction
A press forces the powder into the die at high pressure, forming the green part.
3
Sintering
The part is heated below melting, bonding particles and setting density.
4
Sizing & Finish
Coining or sizing reaches final tolerance; heat treatment or impregnation follows.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How does PM compare to CNC in cost?
A: Above 5,000 pieces/year, PM typically cuts cost 30-70% versus CNC machining.
Q: What are the limitations?
A: Best under 150mm diameter and 10kg; thin walls under 1.5mm can be challenging.
Q: Can PM parts be heat treated?
A: Yes — quench, case-harden or steam-treat to HRC 45.
