Zinc Alloy

For tough applications Zincaloy ZA-12 continuously cast bar and bearing stock (solid & hollow) is recommended. ZA-12 has been successfully applied in many demanding applications including compressor connecting rods and pillow blocks, bucket bearings, dragline bearings, rotating and oscillating bearings, thrust washers and wear plates.

  • Cost Effective for O.E.M. and replacement bearings.
  • Offers longer bearing life, low coefficient of friction
  • Prevents shaft and pin damage, protects housings from deformation due to pounding
  • Zincaloy ZA-12 meets ASTM B86
  • Embeds foreign particles well
  • Provides emergency dry running performance
  • Excellent Machinability
  • Lighter weight, 32% lighter than bronze
  • Meets ASTM standards-Lead Free composition
  • Excellent corrosion resistance
  • In many cases can be substituted for SAE660 bronze
