Nylacast Nylube

Nylube was introduced into the Nylacast product range in

1989 as a logical progression to Oilon already outstanding

performance as a bearing material. Since that time, it has

proved to be Nylacast supreme wear resisting grade and

one of the most important developments from Nylacast in

new materials. Nylube contains a combined liquid/solid

lubricant system which allows for a coefficient of friction as

low as 0.08. This is below that of almost any other polymer

available at present.

Nylube has substantially improved the wear resistance

abilities compared to that of any other currently available

lubricated grade of cast nylon, whilst retaining excellent

physical property characteristics. The material is

particularly suited to dry running bearing applications

throughout a wide load, speed and temperature range (up

to 120oC).

Like Oilon, Nylube is suitable for use in applications in the

food and pharmaceutical industries.

Separate literature is available for this grade.
