PPS/Graphite fiber reinforced/PTFE lubricated. Low coefficient of expansion and friction, high HDT, excellent wear and chemical resistance make this compound ideal for friction applications in corrosive environments. This tribological compound of high mechanical properties is ideal for bearing surfaces such as bushings, wear pads, mechanical seals, thrust washers, rod packing, and reciprocating components in pumps, […]
Duralast Series - PPS
DURALAST Series PPS’s excellent thermal and chemical resistance make it an ideal product for uses in oil & gas down-hole tools and in fluid handling industries such as valve and pump components (seats, seals, housings, pistons, packings, bearings, and bushings).
VR-54 (Injection Molded Glass & Mineral-fiber reinforced PPS)
PPS/Glass/Mineral reinforced. This blend offers high-heat distortion temperature and low thermal conductivity. VR-54 is ideal for heat insulation applications, sealing, and anti-extrusion devices––making it an excellent Asbestos/Phenolic replacement. VR-54-IM Data Sheet
VR-48 (30% Glass, 15% PTFE-reinforced and Lubricated Bearing/Wear Grade PPS)
PPS/30% Glass/15% PTFE. This material has similar mechanical and electrical properties to VR-40 giving high temperature performance up to 458o F with outstanding toughness, offering the highest impact resistance of the PPS family of compounds. Excellent cost/performance value––bearing grade recommended for electrical and mechanical components subjected to mechanical loads and friction. VR-48 Data Sheet
VR-40 (Glass-reinforced PPS)
40% glass-reinforced grade. This compound has excellent electrical properties such as high dielectric strength, stable dielectric constant, and dissipation factor over a wide range of temperatures, making it the ideal choice for high-temperature insulators and interconnecting devices. VR-40 has excellent retention of strength at elevated temperatures offering 490o F HDT, with a continuous use temperature […]
VR-80 (Unfilled Compression Molded PPS)
Stabilized base resin. This material has excellent chemical and environmental resistance and is not attacked by strong acids and bases. VR-80 has good electrical insulating properties, but is not recommended for structural application. VR-80 Data Sheet
