A bimetal thrust washer is a type of washer constructed from Copper Lead or Al Tin alloys with Steel Back bonded together. This innovative design leverages the distinct properties of each metal to create a more durable and effective component compared to single-metal washers.
- Types: Washers with Thrust Face Contours, Ring Type Thrust Washers.
- Function: Manage axial loads in mechanical assemblies, Minimising Friction between moving parts.
- Applications: Engines, Transmissions, Compressors,Gears.
