Hi, can anyone point me in the direction of a Babbitt / white metal supplier in the UK, I need to make some new bearings for a Petter engine.
Thanks

Hi Dougie,
 
I struggled to find a source for a similar job and eventually I contacted Hoyt who suggested contacting http://www.jelbearings.co.uk/index.php
 
As well as remetaling bearings they will sell small amounts of suitable bearing metal without all the surcharges of a small order.
 
Hope this helps

Lots of bearing info here, might be useful ? Big end bearings for Jowett cars etc historical info on plain bearing material development.
