Wear Resistant Plastic Sheet
Plastics such as uhmw nylon and acetal are excellent choices for wear applications that involve sliding against mating metal parts.
Wear resistant plastic sheet. These parts generate less friction and heat as well as increasing part life reducing maintenance costs. Uhmw plastic is ideal for reducing wear and friction due to its specialized internal lubrication reducing maintenance costs and energy consumption while extending equipment life. Sustainable and durable chemical resistant easy to clean easy to work with environmentally friendly recyclable wear resistant. Many of these materials are available in formulations that include additives and fillers to further enhance their sliding wear performance.
Sliding wear against mating metal parts. Ekon plastic sheet material is available in virgin and recycled material. Advantages of ekon plastic sheet material. Perfect for bearing and wear applications nylon is frequently used to replace metal bearings and bushings many times eliminating need for external lubrication.
Nylon plastic is a strong stiff mechanical and engineering machinable thermoplastic with outstanding toughness dimensional stability wear resistance availability and versatility. Professional plastics offers a wide range of wear resistant plastic materials many of which contain internal lubricants which reduce or eliminate the need for additional fluid lubricants. Plastics can be used for applications that require rubbing contact with mating metal surfaces. High durability low friction and wear resistance are key reasons why uhmw is the material of choice for many applications.
It is suitable for many applications like feeders for pigs.
