History of receipt

Babbitt created the American jeweler Isaac Babbitt, after whom this alloy is named. However, in the production of ornaments, babbitt was not distributed. Industrialists began to actively use it. Babbit has a high antifriction properties, and therefore it began to be poured into bearings, firstly steam engines, and later — and into other rubbing parts, which experience significant mechanical loads.

Composition

The babbit consists mainly of lead, antimony, copper and tin. All these metals provide alloys with the required antifriction properties. These properties. help the bearings to be more evenly attached to the rotating shafts, reducing the coefficient of friction and increasing the durability of the bearing slide assemblies. The supplier Avlob offers to buy babbitt alloys at a bargain price. The price is the best in this segment of rental.

Types of babbits used

The basis of lead babbit is lead, such alloys are used for unloaded bearings.
The basis of the tin babbit is tin; such an alloy is considered to be the most wear-resistant. This is the basis for the production of sliding bearings that experience vibration and shock loads. These alloys are more expensive, Babbits, in which there are calcium and sodium are distinguished by a minimum price. However, they are rapidly oxidized by oxygen, and because of this have a reduced wear resistance. Most often these babbits are used in the production of bearings of cars, platforms and other components of the railway rolling stock.

And more about babbits

The composition of babbits can include tellurium, arsenic, sodium and cadmium — metals, which increase the load-bearing capacity of sliding bearings. All brands of babbits are produced according to certain state standards. In particular, calcium babbits are produced in accordance with the technical requirements of GOST 1209−90, lead — according to GOST 1320−74, etc.
