This grade provides a very high mechanical and fatigue strength and is suitable for high precision bearings. It has the lowest coefficient of thermal expansion of the entire Meldin® 4000 series. It is electrically conductive due to filler composition. All 4000 series compounds have common properties that make them suitable replacements for metal components: they are stiff and retain high mechanical strength at elevated temperatures; they are very durable even in harsh applications in regards to wear; and they are chemically compatible with all automotive fluids (fuels and oils). |
