The addition of graphite and PTFE gives rise to a higher wear resistance and a lower coefficient of sliding friction in comparison with unfilled types. This material also offers exceptional dimensional stability over a wide temperature range. This type is ideal for high-wear applications, such as is the case for non-lubricated sliding elements, seals, bearing cages, and parts for lifting movements. In the case of large semi-finished product dimensions, this material can also be processed in a press-sintering method.Information provided by Angst + Pfister |
