The stretched metal mesh is a light weight material with low linear expansion coefficients and good thermal conductivity. The PTFE filled in the mesh provides self-lubricating and noise absorbing features. The material could meet the interference fit requirement and could be calibrated after assembling. Among of the two available materials of CSB-FM(stretched bronze mesh) and CSB-FMS(stretched stainless steel mesh), CSB-FMS has better corrosion resistance feature.

The material is with good wear resistance, low friction coefficient, corrosion resistance and high chemical resistance. It is suitable for the applications where the lubricating is hard to or not accessible. The machining requirement of the mating parts is not critical, so this kind of materials are widely used in general industry.

The metal fabric backing provides wear resistance and self-lubricating properties with its light weight feature which is suitable for manual and automatic assembling. The final fitting precision and torque could be adjusted by calibration after installation of the bushing. There are two materials available:CSB-FR is a bronze fabric backing material and CSB-FRS is a stainless steel fabric backing material. The latter has better corrosion resistance feature.
