Humidity: High humidity levels can contribute to corrosion of brass bushings by promoting the formation of moisture on the surface of the material. This moisture can react with atmospheric contaminants and dissolved gases to form corrosive solutions, accelerating the corrosion process. In humid environments, proper sealing or protective coatings may be necessary to mitigate moisture ingress and minimize corrosion. p...
More detailsChemical Reactions: Brass is an alloy primarily composed of copper and zinc, with small amounts of other elements. Temperature fluctuations can accelerate chemical reactions between the constituents of brass and the surrounding environment. At higher temperatures, these reactions may proceed more rapidly, potentially leading to increased corrosion rates. Oxidation: Brass can form an oxide layer on its surface when e...
More detailsMechanical Properties: Temperature changes can alter the mechanical properties of brass, including its hardness, strength, and ductility. At elevated temperatures, brass tends to soften, reducing its hardness and potentially compromising its load-bearing capacity. Conversely, lower temperatures can cause brass to become more brittle, increasing the risk of fracture or failure under load. Elastic Modulus: Brass has a...
More detailsProper lubrication plays a critical role in the performance and lifespan of flange bushes in mechanical systems. Here's how it affects them: Reduced Friction: Lubrication forms a thin film between the flange bush and the shaft or housing, reducing friction and wear during operation. This minimizes the risk of surface damage and extends the lifespan of the flange bush. Improved Wear Resistance: Lubrication helps to ...
