Overview
SIST ISO 3547-4:2020 is an international standard published by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) that specifies the materials requirements for plain bearings, specifically focusing on wrapped bushes. This part of the ISO 3547 series outlines the specifications for both solid and multilayer bearing materials used in wrapped bushes, ensuring consistency and reliability in bearing construction and performance.
The standard covers chemical composition and hardness criteria of bearing materials typically used in industrial applications. Adherence to SIST ISO 3547-4:2020 helps manufacturers and users to establish agreed parameters for materials to optimize durability, load capacity, and frictional properties suitable for their specific applications.
Key Topics
- Scope and Material Specifications: Defines the requirements for solid and multilayer materials for wrapped bushes in plain bearings.
- Chemical Analysis: Establishes that chemical content analysis is mandatory for acceptance of bearing metals, emphasizing accurate, recognized testing methods agreed upon by supplier and user.
- Hardness Values: Specifies typical hardness values for bearing materials, acknowledging that actual values may vary due to material composition and processing. It includes detailed hardness guidelines for:
- Solid materials such as hardened steel, and copper alloys (e.g., CuSn8P, CuZn31Si).
- Multilayer materials with combinations of steel backing and bearing layers, including various copper-based and aluminum alloys tailored for diverse performance needs.
- Material Applications and Performance Notes: Each material is accompanied by recommendations regarding load capacity, frictional properties, emergency running characteristics, and typical usage environments.
- Testing Standards Integration: References to complementary ISO standards related to hardness testing, chemical composition, and dimensional requirements ensure a holistic quality framework.
Applications
SIST ISO 3547-4:2020 is highly relevant in industries requiring reliable bearing solutions, such as:
- Automotive and Transportation: Bearings for transmissions, vehicle gear assemblies, steering components, and suspension systems.
- Agricultural Machinery: Wrapping bushes for equipment exposed to varying loads and environmental conditions.
- Industrial Machinery: Pumps, compressors, conveyors, textile machinery, and packaging machines benefit from standard-compliant bearing materials ensuring optimal wear resistance and load handling.
- Aerospace and Hydraulic Systems: Bearings used in high-load hydraulic pumps and transmission systems benefit from materials exhibiting good seizure resistance and emergency running capabilities.
- Heavy Machinery and Lifting Equipment: Greased multilayer materials specified in the standard are suitable for cranes, hoists, and lifting devices requiring robust, long-life plain bearings.
By adhering to ISO 3547-4, manufacturers and users can select materials that optimize bearings’ load capacity, durability, frictional performance, and temperature limits, ensuring functionality and safety in critical mechanical systems.
Related Standards
SIST ISO 3547-4:2020 complements and references several related ISO standards to form a complete system for specifications, testing, and terminology of wrapped bushes and plain bearings:
- ISO 3547-1: Dimensions for wrapped bushes-establishes geometric and dimensional requirements.
- ISO 4378-1 and ISO 4378-4: Terms, definitions, classifications, and symbols for plain bearings and bearing materials.
- ISO 4382-2: Specifications for wrought copper alloys used in solid plain bearings.
- ISO 4383: Defines multilayer materials for thin-walled plain bearings.
- ISO 4384-1 and ISO 4384-2: Hardness testing methods for multilayer and solid bearing metals.
- ISO 3547-2 and ISO 3547-3: Test data for diameters and lubrication features in wrapped bushes.
Integration of SIST ISO 3547-4:2020 with these standards facilitates standardized engineering approaches to bearing design, manufacturing, and quality assurance.
