《GB/T 39431-2020滑动轴承 含有分散固体润滑剂轴承》由TC236(全国滑动轴承标准化技术委员会)归口,主管部门为中国机械工业联合会。


Introduction

Analysis of the core content of the standard

Technical dimensions Features of this standard Comparison with traditional bearings
Lubrication mechanism Solid lubricant is evenly dispersed in the metal matrix to continuously form a lubricating film Depends on grease lubrication or fluid dynamic pressure
Applicable temperature -200℃~700℃ (depending on material combination) Generally ≤150℃
Motion form Rotation/reciprocating/swinging/micromotion Mainly rotation

Key Technical Features

The standard defines bearings containing dispersed solid lubricants, which are manufactured through powder metallurgy process and have two typical structures:

  • Single-layer type: solid lubricants are evenly distributed in the metal matrix (copper/nickel/iron-based alloy)
  • Multi-layer type: a composite structure containing steel backing layer + sintered layer, divided into rolled sleeves and integral sleeves

Material Combination Specifications

Metal Matrix Selection

Alloy Type Representative Material Temperature Range Characteristics
Copper Base Cu-Sn/Cu-Ni-Fe -200~450℃ General purpose, can be used in vacuum
Nickel-based Ni-Cu-Fe -200~600℃ Excellent corrosion resistance
Iron-based Fe-Cu/stainless steel 0~700℃ High temperature oxidation resistance

Solid lubricant matching

According to the selection flow chart in Appendix A of the standard, the key matching principles include:

  1. Graphite (-120~600℃) is suitable for most air environments
  2. Molybdenum disulfide (-100~400℃) performs better in vacuum conditions
  3. Boron nitride (≤900℃) or polytetrafluoroethylene (-260~260℃) can be used for extreme temperatures

Key points for project implementation

Dimension tolerance control

Standard Table 5 gives the preferred size series of integral sleeves. Special attention should be paid to the following:

  • The recommended inner diameter tolerance is C7, and the clearance with the shaft is D6-E6
  • Thermal expansion needs to be compensated for in high temperature conditions, and the clearance should be increased by 20-30%

Installation and maintenance

According to the requirements of Chapter 8:

  1. Preferably use the press-in method for installation, and chamfering is required if the interference is greater than 0.03mm
  2. Liquid nitrogen cooling can be used for copper-based alloys (-196℃)
  3. Adding grease during operation is allowed to extend service life (optional)

Typical application cases

According to the industrial practice in Appendix B:

Application areas Recommended material combinations Performance advantages
Vacuum coating equipment Cu-Sn+Molybdenum disulfide No outgassing pollution, friction coefficient <0.1
Steel continuous casting machine Fe-Cu+Graphite Resistant to high temperature oxidation at 700℃
Food machinery Cu-Ni-Sn+PTFE Meets FDA food safety requirements
