General Info
Extruded Duratron® T4301 Bearing Grade PAI is primarily used for wear and friction parts. It offers a very low expansion rate, low coefficient of friction and exhibits little or no slip-stick in use.
Duratron® T4301’s flexural modulus of 1,000,000 psi, is higher than most other advanced engineering plastics. This grade excels in severe service wear applications such as non-lubricated bearings, seals, bearing cages and reciprocating compressor parts. Duratron® T Grades are molded from Torlon® resin using Mitsubishi Chemical Advanced Material’s proprietary processing technologies.

Key Properties
- Thermal Performance to 500°F (260°C) Continuous Use Temp
- Excellent Wear Resistance
- High Flex & Compressive Modulus
- Ideal high Pressure and Velocity Bearing Applications
- Low Coefficient of Friction (COF)
Limitations
- Duratron® T PAI Grade Materials have a relatively high moisture absorption rate, parts used in high temperature service or made to tight tolerances should be kept dry prior to installation.
- Thermal shock resulting in deformation can occur if moisture laden parts are rapidly exposed to temperatures above 400°F (205° C).
- Chemical Resistance to Strong Bases, Steam and Some High Temperature Acids
Applications
- Aerospace Components
- Bushings & Bearings
- Gears
- Metal Replacement
- Oil & Gas Components
- Rollers
- Seals
- Thrust Washers
- Wear Rings

Manufacturer Trade Names
Boedeker Plastics, Inc. stocks & supplies plastic sheet, rod, tube, film and custom profiles and machine parts from these shapes that are produced from plastic resin. In many cases the manufacturer of the shape has their own product trade name. If your specification calls for a specific resin grade or manufacturer trade name, we can supply a shape made from that resin to meet your specification or suggest an equal. If you require a specific resin or brand it must be specified at the time of order.
