Suitable for rotary, oscillating, and linear motion applications.
Technical Parameters of TEFPLAS Fluoroplastic Bearing
TEFPLAS® B is a standard sliding layer material. It combines high load bearing and wear resistance performance , suitable for hard shafts ≥HRC35 or hard anodized aluminum shafts.
TEFPLAS® G has excellent wear resistance, lower starting friction force, suitable for hard shafts or hard anodized aluminum shafts.
TEFPLAS® E FDA food contact safety materials, suitable for stainless steel shaft or aluminum shaft.
TEFPLAS® P FDA food contact safety materials, suitable for soft shafts.
