EXPLORE WEAR RESISTANCE
LubriOne internally lubricated thermoplastic polymers have been specifically
designed to improve tribological performance in components, offering
low coefficient of friction and improved wear–resistance properties.
These
properties, coupled with a wide array of base engineering thermoplastics,
deliver the distinct benefits of LubriOne:
• Reduced friction and heat buildup between interacting surfaces
• Reduced noise and vibration among components in relative motion
• Reduced weight and improved design freedom
• Lower long–term maintenance costs when grease and other lubricants
are eliminated
