FLUOR/SC ETCHED TAPES Fluor/SC calibrated tape, suitably treated to be bonded to metal, in F10PTFE with bronze and metal oxide additives with laminar structure, has long been used to obtain tape for self-lubricating guide rails. Fluor/SC etched tape is widely used in machine tools as sliding bearings thanks to the following benefits: Easily bonded with suitable adhesives, after surface preparation; Optimal coefficient of friction and consequent smooth movement and precise and repeatable positioning; Minimal wear, with or without lubrication, even with varying specific loads; Self-lubricating, no maintenance required; High specific load capacity, both static and kinetic; Linear distribution of loads even between shapes that are not perfectly complementary; Option of preloading the couplings to cancel the clearances; Resistance to vibratory stress and sensitive damping capacity; Protects the guide rails in the presence of abrasive contaminants that are gathered by the tape; Compatibility with all lubricants and coolants used in machine tools.
