Self-lubricating glass fiber plain bearing POLYGONPOLYLUBE® Fiber Series Bushings
Fiber Series are the bushing of choice in highly loaded bushings, where a life cycle of over 500,000 cycles is desired. Testing has shown this bushing has wear under 0.006" after 1.6 million cycles. Applications include material handling equipment, heavy duty cranes, earth-moving equipment, construction equipment, agriculture equipment and food processing systems. The bushing surface is composed of a uniquely designed woven structure of PTFE super-filaments, which exhibit tensile strengths twenty times greater than PTFE resins. As a result, the bushing is not subject to cold flow under high loading conditions. These PTFE super-filaments are also the primary mechanism for allowing the POLYLUBE® product to operate in a true self-lubricating mode. Secondary lubrication is not necessary during start-up due to a film transfer that occurs with the self-lubrication process. |
