Ertalyte TX-Upgraded Ertalyte

One of the engineers of an applications development firm says Ertalyte offers high mechanical hardness, strength & stiffness, excellent creep resistance, along with a constant & low coefficient of friction, an in addition, it is physiologically inert.

“Ertalyte’s above mentioned properties make the material ideal candidate for the manufacture raw material of mechanical precision parts which are subject to wear and have to sustain high loads. Classically such parts include brushings, bearings, thrust washers, wear plates, guides, rollers, gears, sheaves, valve parts, pump components, & also the electrical insulating components. For un-lubricated moving part usage, the manufacturer of finished and semi-finished engineering thermoplastics manufactures a premium, internally lubricated bearing grade made of ertalyte called Ertalyte TX.

Incorporating a uniformly distributed solid lubricant, Ertalyte TX is predominantly suitable for the manufacturing of sliding parts where long wear, low friction, very good dimensional stability & high load-bearing capacity are required. An application example of this includes machine construction & precision engineering.

This version of Ertalyte has excellent wear resistance, high velocity-pressure capabilities and lower coefficient of friction. Also it retains the compressive & tensile strength, hardness, stiffness, dimensional stability, creep resistance which are inherent in the Ertalyte. Thus there is value addition in ertalyte on ertalyte TX part.
