deva.metal® PRO
deva.metal® is a high-performance sliding bearing material. Manufactured using powder metallurgy, the deva.metal® system is based on four main groups – bronze, iron, nickel, and stainless steel. These contain solid lubricants, e.g., graphite, manganese sulfide or molybdenum disulfide, which are uniformly embedded in the metal structure. As a material manufactured by means of powder metallurgy, deva.metal® is very dimensionally stable. However, our special sintering methods enable very high physical durability, particularly when subjected to compressive stress.
The requirements of the specific application determine the volumetric content of the solid lubricant, its type, and form. The determining factors include the sliding speed, the specific load, the temperature, and other application-specific operating conditions. Very specific tribological properties can therefore be produced.
deva.metal® offers a number of advantages
Standard material for general mechanical engineering
Generally for dry-running and water-lubricated applications
Very good tribological properties
The material has an elevated wear resistance, extending the life of a bearing significantly compared with similar type materials on the market. This is achieved by a unique rate (20%wt) and formulation of solid lubricant inside the bronze metal matrix. The advantage for the customer is the possibility of significantly extending the service life of the bearing system, resulting in the according extent of the maintenance intervals
