proud of our workmanship
and it shows.
Oil impregnation provides self-lubrication to powder metallurgy parts. By impregnating the parts with oil, they become capable of retaining lubrication for an extended period, reducing the need for frequent maintenance and lubrication.
The performance and longevity of customer's parts are improved with Imprex's oil impregnation services.

Benefits of Oil Impregnation
Porosity in powder metallurgy is impregnated with an oil to allow the part to be self-lubricated. A self-lubricated part dispenses lubricant as needed for the life of the part. This is especially important for components used in high-stress environments, where regular lubrication may not be feasible. Oil impregnation improves the part function, reduces maintenance costs, and the need for replacement parts.
