Bronze bearings are commonly used in rotating machinery that require strength, reliability, and resistance to wear. They’re made from copper-based alloys and shaped as hollow cylinders, sometimes with one or two flanges, to support shafts and minimize friction in both light and heavy-duty equipment. These bearings are generally divided into two categories: plain bearings and thrust bearings. Each type can be customized to match specific operating requirements, with the choice of bronze alloy and lubrication groove design helping ensure stable and efficient performance under different working conditions. These bearings are made from high-strength and high-hardness alloys, which is ideal to withstand heavy loads, high temperatures, impacts, and reciprocating motions. They are also stable in wet environments or situations where regular lubrication isn't feasible.
Compared with standard bronze bushings, their hardness and strength are more than doubled, which helps maintain precision and durability even under demanding use. In addition, bronze bearings have good ductility, providing a balance between toughness and flexibility during operation and installation. Known for their strength, smooth motion, and lasting resistance to wear and corrosion, bronze bearings are a good choice for machinery that needs to run steadily over time.
Bronze bearings are produced according to the specific requirements and operating conditions of the equipment they are installed in. Manufacturing is done with micron-level precision, using bronze alloys such as C90500, C90700, C91700, and C94300, each chosen for its distinct properties and applications.

Bronze bearings are widely used across multiple industrial fields, including:
We handle every production stage independently, from the development and casting of bronze wear parts to machining and quality inspection. This allows us to have full control over product quality and ensures that each process is backed by our proprietary know-how and patented technologies.
Backed by more than 40 years of experience, we specialize in bronze wear parts for wind power, mining, hydropower, marine, and oil extraction equipment. Our product catalog includes bronze and steel bearings, bushings, and other wear components. We have long-term partnerships with several Fortune 500 companies within these industries.
Our workshop is equipped with 20 advanced five-axis machining centers from MAZAK and MAKINO, along with 35 imported turning and milling machines. The 5,000 m² temperature-controlled facility is operated by experienced CNC technicians who make sure every part is machined with accuracy and consistency.
We manage every step of production in-house, following ISO9001 and CCS quality standards to ensure consistent results. Our CNAS-accredited laboratory (CNAS L5937) and skilled inspection team handle all testing and verification, including material composition, hardness, tensile strength, and microstructure, along with non-destructive tests such as UT, PT, and VT. All procedures comply with GB, ASTM, ISO, JIS, and YS standards.
From bronze bushings and bearings to customized wear components, we’re here to help you find the right solution for your equipment.
Bronze nuts, sliding bearings and other wear parts can be manufactured according to customer drawings and specifications. Each wear part will be manufactured with micron-level precision to match specific design or size requirements in different industries.
Reinforced bronze bearings can be produced with thick-wall construction to handle repeated shock loads. Through the use of composite materials, strengthened structures, and optimized processing, these bearings offer higher impact resistance and longer service life. Custom designs are also available to meet specific equipment requirements.
Inspection and testing reports can be issued according to railway industry standards. All reports follow ISO9001 and CNAS certification requirements to guarantee accuracy and reliability.
Bronze bearings with solid lubricants can be provided for high-pressure compressor systems. Using a composite design that combines a copper alloy base with embedded lubricating materials, these bearings offer high wear resistance, self-lubricating performance, and reliable operation under extreme conditions with little or no maintenance.
When evaluating new suppliers, buyers usually check ISO9001 quality management, environmental and safety certifications, material traceability, and other industry-specific approvals to ensure product reliability and compliance.
