We hope you will find this information useful in understanding the centrifugal casting process, the superior quality it provides and the ways we can help you to reline old WHITE METAL bearings unto 80 inches dia. or manufacture new bearings as per your drawings. 

  • Physical properties such as tensile, creep, and fatigue strength are increased up to 30% Centrifugal metal purity withstands greater overload and strain without fracture.

  • NO REJECTS - Blowholes, porosity, and inclusions are eliminated before finish machining.

  • MACHINING EXPENSES REDUCED - Expensive machining time is not wasted on defective parts and material waste is significantly reduced.

  • PRODUCTION FLEXIBILITY - The centrifugal process provides economical production of a diversified range of sizes, and quantities.

Four characteristics emerge from the "molecular packing" action common only to the high-velocity centrifugal process:
 

  • Since the parts are formed under pressures many times that of gravity, they exhibit a denser, closer-grained structure with greatly improved physical properties.
  • During spinning, heavier metal is forced outward, displacing the lighter oxides and impurities and causing them to "float" inward toward the central axis to be removed later in the boring operation.
  • Unlike conventional gravity or static castings that chill from both the inside and outside surfaces, centrifugals freeze from the outside surface inward. The result is a part free of shrinkage cavities, gas pockets, and blowholes.
  • We guarantee 100 percent bond strength in all our bearings and provide ultrasonic test reports along with the relined bearings.
