Key Properties
- Low Coefficient of Friction (COF)
- Near Zero Slip Stick
- Formulated for Linear Wear Pads for Ultimate Control and Load Handling Capability
- Can Be Cast as Finished Parts and Near Net Shapes (Nylon 6)
Limitations
- High Moisture Absorption
- Limited Resistance to Strong Acids & Alkalies Note - Nylons can absorb up to 7% (by weight) water under high humidity or submerged in water. This can result in dimensional changes up to 2% and a corresponding reduction of physical properties. Proper design techniques can frequently compensate for this factor.
Applications
- Any Wear Pad or Wear Surface that requires Vibration, Chatter or Slip Stick Elimination
- Sliding/Wear Pads in Telescopic Crane Booms
- Conveyor Components
- Conveyor Corner Tracks
- Forestry Equipment Wear Pads
