Babbitt Metal. Babbitt metal, is an antifriction metal alloy first produced by Isaac Babbitt in 1839. In present-day usage the term is applied to a whole class of silver-white bearing metals, or white metals. These alloys usually consist of relatively hard crystals embedded in a softer matrix, a structure important for machine bearings.
