Typical applications

  • Rotary steerable drilling tool bushings and bearing sleeves
  • High-load wear rings and sliding components
  • Precision industrial bearing components

Selection checklist

  • Verify load, counterface material, lubrication, corrosion and service temperature.
  • Specify heat-treatment condition and required tensile, yield and hardness limits.
  • The brochure lists ≥1,250 MPa tensile strength for the TS-1250 condition—not for every C72900 condition.
