Oiles #500SP (special resin)
Oiles #500SP (special resin) is part of the Oiles range of multi-material self-lubricating / maintenance-free plain bearings — metal-polymer composites, oil-impregnated and solid-lubricant-embedded metals (bronze/steel), special engineering resins, and self-lubricating slide/wear plates for structural and die applications. A self-lubricating engineering-resin bearing with no direct sintered-metal analogue in the Metafram house range; it sits alongside Bushingo's composite/self-lubricating offering rather than BP25/FP20/SO16. For plate and wear-surface duties it cross-references most closely to Metagliss self-lubricating friction plates, and to competitor engineered-plastic bearings. Recommend quoting where a customer needs corrosion resistance or electrical insulation that metal bushes cannot provide.
Specification
| Brand | Oiles |
|---|---|
| Series | Oiles #500SP (special resin) |
| Material | Special engineering thermoset/resin-based self-lubricating material with embedded solid lubricant; electrically insulating and corrosion-resistant, chosen where metals are unsuitable. |
| Forms | cylindrical bush, flanged bush, thrust washer, plate / wear plate, machined custom shapes |
| Typical size range | Resin bearing class is typically offered in medium-to-large sections and plate formats; general bore ranges span roughly tens of millimetres upward, favouring higher-load, lower-speed and wet/corrosive duties. Confirmed per RFQ. |
Key features
- Maintenance-free, self-lubricating without oil or grease
- Corrosion-resistant and non-conductive — suited to wet and chemically aggressive environments
- Good dimensional stability under sustained load
- Runs against a wide range of mating surfaces including stainless and coated shafts
- Available in both bush and flat plate forms
Typical applications
- Water-control gates, sluices, and hydraulic steel structures
- Marine and offshore equipment
- Chemical and food-processing machinery
- Structural and civil-engineering supports
- Applications requiring electrical isolation of the bearing
