Nylube has substantially improved the wear resistance abilities compared to that of any other currently available lubricated grade of cast nylon, whilst retaining excellent physical property characteristics. The material is particularly suited to dry running bearing applications throughout a wide load, speed and temperature range (upto 120ºC).Like Oilon, Nylube is suitable for use in applications in the food and pharmaceutical industries.
- Benefits
- Outstanding wear and abrasion resistance
- Significantly improved PV characteristics
- Improved operating temperature capability
- Outstanding lubrication and low coefficient of friction
- Greatly improved stick/slip capabilities
- Wide load, speed and temperature operating range
- Consistent wear performance throughout product life
- Excellent dimensional stability
- Reduced water absorption
- Excellent chemical resistance
- Blended solid/liquid lubricant system
- FDA compliant for direct food contact applications
