Antimony impregnated carbon rods can be supplied according to your machining requirements.
Typical supply information includes: Rod diameter, rod length, machining allowance, surface condition, material grade, quantity, dimensional tolerance, and packaging.
Customized Sizes:For OEM production, provide a 2D drawing, 3D model, existing component, or dimensional specification. We will evaluate the required blank dimensions and recommend an appropriate rod size to minimize machining waste.
Where Are Antimony Carbon Rods Used
Mechanical Seals for Pumps
Machined into carbon seal rings for centrifugal, industrial water, process, chemical, and submersible pumps. Grade selected by medium, pressure, temperature, and speed.
Carbon Bearings & Bushings
Self-lubricating properties suit applications where conventional lubrication is undesirable or difficult—pump bearings, textile machinery, conveyors, drying equipment, and industrial rotating machinery.
Chemical & Process Equipment
Used where corrosion resistance and low friction are required. Compatibility with the specific medium must be verified—especially in strongly acidic, alkaline, or aggressive environments.
Before placing an OEM order, we recommend confirming the following parameters:
- Application:Mechanical seal, bearing, bushing, wear ring, thrust ring, or other component.
- Operating Medium:Water, oil, chemical liquid, gas, slurry, or other process media.
- Operating Conditions:Temperature, pressure, shaft speed, lubrication condition, running time, and mating material.
- Finished Component Dimensions:OD, ID, length/thickness, tolerance, and drawing or 3D model if available.
- Purchase Requirement:Required grade, rod dimensions, quantity, trial/sample quantity, and annual consumption if available.
This allows our technical team to evaluate the material more accurately—avoiding a carbon grade recommendation based only on dimensions.
For industrial carbon materials, batch-to-batch consistency is critical—the rod will normally be machined into precision components. Our QC process covers key stages from material preparation to finished product inspection.
Raw Material Control:Graphite substrate is checked against applicable requirements before impregnation.
Impregnation Process Control:Controlled to achieve stable penetration and consistent material characteristics.
Machining Inspection
Custom rods and finished components inspected per customer drawings and tolerance requirements.
Material Inspection
Bulk density, hardness, flexural/compressive strength, porosity, thermal expansion, and dimensional accuracy verified per order specification.
Pre-Shipment Inspection
Products inspected before packing to reduce dimensional or quantity discrepancies.
