Overview
The Graphalloy 553-964808-212 is a Type 553 high-temperature thrust washer manufactured by Graphite Metallizing Co (Graphalloy). This graphite/metal alloy material is a self-lubricating carbon and graphite bearing component that offers superior performance in hundreds of mechanical and electrical applications. Built for industrial automation, mechanical power transmission, and motion control systems, this thrust washer is engineered to eliminate the need for external lubrication and provide extended service life even in extreme conditions.
Key Features
- Self-lubricating graphite-metal alloy composition eliminates need for oil or grease
- Ideal for high-temperature applications where plastic bushings would soften or melt, with no oil or grease to bake out
- Type 553 configuration designed for thrust load applications
- U.S. manufactured for consistent quality and reliability
- Drop-in replacement for original equipment
