Thrust Washers

To safeguard critical components from wear, bronze thrust washers are often employed. These washers are specifically engineered to support axial loads and restrict unwanted shaft movement along its axis. For enhanced lubrication, thrust washers can feature precision grooves that help distribute oil or grease more effectively. In demanding, high-temperature environments, these grooves may be filled with graphite, enabling the washer to deliver reliable self-lubrication and maintain performance even under extreme conditions.
