The slip ring on my lathe is worn out. This part is is used to push a rotating B112 steel cylinder in and engage the clutch. The sheet calls for grey iron as the material. I am wondering if making it out of bronze or HDPE may be a better option?
I only need 1"x1"x6" piece to make this part, so sourcing the material shouldn't be hard, but I am not sure.
