Using the next generation of Teflon® only recently available to the bearing industry, Daemar is able to supply a composite bearing with the high tenacity PTFE mono-filaments as the primary anti-friction component in the ID of the bearing. The wear liner still incorporates small woven pockets to ensure a high degree of embeddability into the bearing surface, as well as ensuring that a high content of PTFE is pushed to the surface in the most efficient fashion possible. This allows for a quick transfer of PTFE from the bearing ID to the mating surface.
Fiber-Lube™ MRP bearings are designed to minimize wear; however, the bearing wear is effected by the general operating conditions, such as speed, sliding distance and load. With intermittent rotation or oscillation, radial wear should be negligible over thousands of hours. Hard chrome plating gives excellent wear performance and protects the shaft from corrosion. Softer coatings such as cadmium or zinc are not recommended. |
