Graphite Metallizing has announced the 117 Series of Graphalloy bushings for high-temperature applications such as ovens, furnaces and glass plants.

Graphalloy, a graphite/metal alloy, is formed from molten metal, graphite and carbon.

It is a uniform, solid, self-lubricating bushing and bearing material.

The 117 Series can be used in bakery ovens, heat-treat furnaces, glass plants, potato chip and bagel factories, dampers, stokers and wherever grease, oil and plastic bushings fail or prove troublesome.

The 117 Series is a pre-engineered solution for plant maintenance and new equipment design requirements.

The bushings are available in two primary grades for high temperatures, both with FDA acceptance as well as for low temperatures.

All Graphalloy products work where oil-based lubricants oxidise or where plastics fail.

Many grades are suitable for temperatures to 750F in air, and special grades provide reliable service up to 1,000F and higher in non-oxidising atmospheres.
