[QUOTE="Martyn Goodwin, post: 109981, member: 2433"] Following extracted from OVR #11. Cutting tools must be sharp. For this reason, carbide inserts are highly recommended since they hold a cutting edge much longer. This preserves the open-pore structure from which oil can flow freely. A dull tool will smear the pores, greatly reducing the self-lubricating qualities of the material. Turning: Cutting Feed Rate: 0.002-0.006 IPM Speed: Oilite® Bronze 375-500 SFM Speed: Super-Oilite® 250-500 SFM Roller Burnishing is an excellent choice to modify an ID slightly. Ball sizing can also be used on the ID effectively for final sizing. Honing and grinding are never recommended on Oilite® bearing materials. Using these methods on any surface which will become the bearing surface will introduce grinding media and could easily smear the bronze pores sealing the micro-porosity. After extensive machining, bearings should be re-impregnated with appropriate / specified oils. Vacuumed impregnation is recommended. If bearings were not lubricated prior to machining and if cutting fluids were used, that medium must be removed prior to any impregnation of the oil selected for the application. Your authorized Oilite distributor can provide oils for reimpregnation after machining More information at [URL="http://www.oilite.com"]www.oilite.com[/URL] [/QUOTE]
