Bunting Bearings ET0812 1" Bore x 1 1/2" OD x 6 1/2" Length Powdered Metal SAE 841 Cored Bar Feature

  • Self Lubricating Bronze Bearing; SAE 30 Oil provides ideal lubrication in most applications
  • Large Working Temperature Range, 10 F to 220 F
  • Conformance to ASTM chemical and physical properties
  • Non Magnetic
  • Corrosion resistant
Bunting Bearings offers a complete line of stock plain bearings, flange bearings and washers made of P/M bronze. Bunting sintered bronze stock bearings have long conformed to ASTM chemical and physical properties, and are the first to include all ASTM standard sizes to ASTM recommended dimensions and tolerances. After forming, sintering and sizing, the bearings are vacuum impregnated with SAE 30 oil that provides lubricant which is metered from the bearing to the shaft during rotation. Standard off-the-shelf oil impregnated bronze bearings should function satisfactorily in temperatures ranging from 10°F to 220°F.

Aluminum 6063-T52 Rectangular Bar, 0.375" Thick, 1.5" Width, 36" Length Review



Aluminum 6063-T52 Rectangular Bar, 0.375" Thick, 1.5" Width, 36" Length Feature

  • Good resistance to general corrosion
  • Easily welded or brazed
  • Use for door and window frames, electrical components and conduit, railings and furniture, heatsinks
  • Good extrudability and high quality surface finish
  • Min 22 ksi tensile strength
Alloy 6063, one of the most popular alloys in the 6000 series, provides good extrudability and a high quality surface finish. In the heat-treated condition, alloy 6063 provides good resistance to general corrosion, including resistance to stress corrosion cracking. It is easily welded or brazed by various commercial methods (caution: direct contact by dissimilar metals can cause galvanic corrosion). Since 6063 is a heat-treatable alloy, strength in its -T6 condition can be reduced in the weld region. Selection of an appropriate filler alloy will depend on the desired weld characteristics. Consult the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS) for proper safety and handling precautions when using alloy 6063. Alloy 6063 offers excellent response for anodizing in its -T5, -T52 , -T53 (“matte finish”), -T54, -T6 (“lustrous” finish) tempers. The most common methods are clear, clear and color dying, and bright dipping and hard coat. Bright dipping provides an economical alternative to mechanical polished finishes while offering improved surface durability.

Aluminum 6061-T6511 Rectangular Bar, 0.5" Thick, 1" Width, 72" Length Feature

  • Excellent corrosion resistance
  • Versatile for medium to high strength requirements
  • Use for transportation components, recreation products, machinery and equipment
  • Good finishing characteristics
  • Min 38 ksi tensile strength
Aluminum 6061 is one of the most widely used alloys in the 6000 series. This standard structural alloy, one of the most versatile of the heat-treatable alloys, is popular for medium to high strength requirements and has good toughness characteristics. Alloy 6061 has excellent corrosion resistance to atmospheric conditions and good corrosion resistance to seawater. This alloy also offers good finishing characteristics and responds well to anodizing; however, where cosmetic appearance is critical, consider the use of alloy 6063. For screw machine applications, alloy 6061 has adequate machinability characteristics in the heat-treated -T6/-T6511 condition. Chips from machining (particularly turning and drilling) can be difficult to break in the -T6/-T6511 temper condition. Chip breakers are recommended, and special machining techniques (i.e. peck drilling) can improve chip formation.

  • Good general purpose light structural steel
  • Easily welded and brazed.
  • Mill Finish
Cold Rolled C1018 Steel is a high quality, low carbon, smooth finished mild steel has good machining characteristics. It is easy to weld and braze making it a great material for light structural, automotive, models or prototypes. The predominant elements in Carbon Steels are Iron and Carbon, of which Carbon content ranges from a few hundredths to just over 1 percent. (Low Carbon Steel - up to 0.30 percent; Medium Carbon Steel - up to 0.70 percent; High Carbon Steel - up to 1.3 percent). Carbon Steel in its various forms represents more than three-quarters of steel production. Carbon Steel is generally fine grain, fully killed (deoxidized) basic steel with no alloying agent. It may be classified as hot rolled or cold drawn, (cold rolled when referring to sheets) and is produced as bar, sheet, wire, tubing and structural shapes. Density is .28 lbs/in3.

Copper 110 Rectangular Bar, ASTM B187, 1/8" Thick, 1" Width, 72" Length Review



Copper 110 Rectangular Bar, ASTM B187, 1/8" Thick, 1" Width, 72" Length Feature

  • ASTM-B187
  • 99.9 percent commercially pure
  • Corrosion Resistant
  • Easily Soldered
  • Excellent electrical and thermal conductivity
Probably the first metal to be smelted from its ore, Copper derives its usefulness from a combination of desirable properties. It resists corrosion, provides outstanding electrical and thermal conductivity, and has good ductility with an attractive appearance. While its strength-to-weight ratio is relatively low, Copper is considered a heavy metal, with a density of .323 lbs/in3. The pure element is salmon pink, melts at 1981 F (1083 C), and polishes to a bright metallic luster. Used in alloyed form since at least 3500 BC, it is nonmagnetic, combines well with other metals, and is easy to fabricate and join. Copper and its alloys tend to work harden, and can be hot or cold worked for increased strength. Copper Rectangular Bar C110 ASTM-B187 is 99.9 percent commercially pure Copper and can be bent, riveted, drilled, soldered, brazed and welded to most any design requirement. Commonly used for electrical connections and ground straps.
