Polyamide 6 + Oil
This internally lubricated cast nylon 6 is self-lubricating in the real meaning of the word. Ertalon LFX, especially developed to lubricate highly loaded and slowly moving parts applications, yields a significant increase in opportunities for application in comparison with standard cast nylons. Provides a reduced coefficient of friction (up to 50% less), substantially increasing the pressure capacity of speed, and a greatly improved wear resistance (up to 10 times better).
- High mechanical strength, stiffness, hardness and toughness
- Good resistance to fatigue
- High mechanical damping ability
- Good sliding properties
- Excellent wear resistance
- Good electrical insulation properties
- Good resistance to high energy radiation (gamma rays and X rays)
- Good machinability
