| | Metcar Bearings for Dry Running at High Temperatures Metallized Carbon Corporation - METCAR, Ossining, NY 29 Jan 2013 Metallized Carbon Corporation, a global leader in the manufacture of oil-free, self-lubricating, carbon-graphite materials for severe service applications, announces the availability of bearings specially designed for dry running in high temperature applications. The Metcar high temperature bearings are designed for use at temperatures ranging from 350 to 1000°F in oxidizing atmospheres, and from 350 to 6000°F in non-oxidizing atmospheres. At these high temperatures, oil-grease lubricated ball, roller, and sleeve bearings are problematic because the oil-grease lubricants can melt, volatilize or carbonize. Plastic and composite bearing materials can soften, deform or melt at such high temperatures. | |
