Foreword

ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards

bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out

through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical

committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International

organizations, governmental and non­governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.

ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of

electrotechnical standardization.

The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are

described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the

different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the

editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www .iso .org/ directives).

Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of

patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of

any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or

4 Characteristics
4.1 Structure

A bearing with embedded solid lubricants is composed of a metallic base body supporting a load and

a solid lubricant embedded in holes or hollows formed on the surface of the metallic base body giving

lubricity. As to the embedded state of a solid lubricant, there is a plug type and a spiral type (see

Figure 1).

As for hole type, there are “through” or perforated ones and “bottomed” ones (see Figure 2).

This document specifies a type which is most common and has been widely used where a solid lubricant

of a plug type is embedded in through holes. This document also specifies a cylindrical bush and a

flanged bush (see Figure 3).

4.2 Friction and wear characteristics

A bearing with embedded solid lubricants falls under the category of a solid lubricant bearing among

self-lubricating bearings. In the solid lubricant bearings, there is a solid type, a coated type, a dispersed

type, and an embedded type.

A solid type is such where a solid lubricant powder is solidified using pitch, resin or the like as a binder.

A coated type is such where a solid lubricant film is formed on a sliding surface by chemical or physical

means such as coating, baking, chemical reaction, or the like.

A dispersed type is such where a solid lubricant powder (fine particles) is dispersed into sintered metal

matrix or the like.

An embedded type is such as mentioned above where holes or hollows are formed on a sliding surface

of a metallic base body and solid lubricants are embedded therein and, since the load is supported by a

metallic base body, this type has excellent load carrying capacity.

The embedded solid lubricant supplies solid lubricant to the sliding surface and, when it slides on

the mating member, the solid lubricant is properly drawn out and spread over both sliding surfaces

whereupon a solid lubricant film is formed.

Further, even when the film is broken, the embedded solid lubricant is drawn out by friction onto the

sliding surfaces, so it repairs the film on the sliding surfaces whereby the lubrication is made possible

for long periods and long life is achieved (see Figure 4).

Since the types of metallic base body and solid lubricant can be appropriately selected depending upon

the operating conditions, a wide range of applications is possible. Moreover, bearings ranging from

small to large sizes can be manufactured.
