Low thermal conductivity is retained despite temperature variation making ptfe a good insulator.
Low friction plastic.
In applications such as bearings where one part slides over another wear is often severe.
The world is wide and i will not waste my life in friction when it could be turned into momentum frances e.
Because of the low loading it allows for bonding to the substrate which can be a problem for many low friction materials.
Generally plastics are very good wear materials with a low coefficient of friction making them ideal for applications where friction is a consideration.
Abrasion resistant plastics with a low coefficient of friction are highly sought after materials for use in a wide variety of industrial applications.
Plastic components that require contact with mating surfaces must offer outstanding resistance to wear along with displaying long life and high performance under constant friction.
Fluorinated oil works well in low durometer thermoplastic elastomer materials for dry applications.
Sliding wear against mating metal parts.
Parts made from low friction polymers can help products last longer with less maintenance.
This special uhmw ultra high molecular weight adhesive backed flexible plastic film has a low coefficient of friction and a high abrasion resistance that surpasses even teflon.
It offers high thermal chemical and solvent resistance high dielectric and antistick properties and very low coefficient of friction.
Vespel low wear high efficiency bushings.
Ptfe powder is perhaps the most common additive for plastics in low friction applications.
Willard plastic materials work well in applications where friction resistance is important.
Plastics such as uhmw nylon and acetal are excellent choices for wear applications that involve sliding against mating metal parts.
Driving longer product life with low friction plastic.
This versatile nontoxic plastomer is widely used in the high tech market.
The low friction plastic made by combining these two materials was used for the cladding on the door checks of bmw s series 5 limousines helping to ensure that the doors open and close smoothly and silently without lubrication.
In addition the abrasion resistance of most plastics is also high under dry running conditions.
These provide an estimate of energy.
Slick strips reduce friction to the point where almost everything moves like it s mounted on ball bearings.
It is quantitatively described by dynamic and static coefficients.
Many of these materials are available in formulations that include additives and fillers to further enhance their sliding wear performance.
