Abstract
In a method for producing a lead-free sliding bearing, a copper-based material comprising a total of 0.1% to 3% of the elements aluminum, magnesium, silicon, titanium, zircon, and chromium is sintered. Additionally, up to 15% tin can be included in order to ensure optimal properties for use in the internal combustion engine.
Claims12
A method for the production of a lead-free sliding bearing, in which a copper-based material comprising a total of 0.1% to 3% by weight of the elements aluminium, magnesium, silicon, titanium, zirconium and chromium is sintered, with the material being mixed with at least one of tin and copper powder prior to sintering.
