ERTALON®
LFX - Colour Green
ERTALON® LFX is an
internally lubricated cast nylon 6, which is
self-lubricating in the real meaning of the word. ERTALON® LFX, specifically
developed for unlubricated, highly loaded and slow moving parts applications,
yields a considerable enlargement of application
opportunities compared to standard cast nylons.
Comparative bearing tests on steel mating surfaces have
shown that ERTALON®
LFX outlasts conventional cast nylon on wear resistance
by a factor which can be as high as 10 and the
coefficient of friction is reduced by 50% or more which
considerably increases the pressure-velocity
capabilities.
In generally for bearings /
bearing surfaces ERTALON® LFX is more suited
to high load / low speed applications, NYLATRON®
GSM (cast Nylon 6 + MOS2) is a good "all
rounder", while NYLATRON® NSM is suitable for
applications requiring higher speed but lower loads.
