This internally lubricated cast nylon 6 is self-lubricating in the real meaning of the word. Ertalon® LFX, especially developed for unlubricated, highly loaded and slow moving parts applications, yields a considerable enlargement of the application opportunities compared to standard cast nylons. It offers a reduced coefficient of friction [up to 50 % lower], considerably increasing the pressure-velocity capabilities, and a vastly improved wear resistance [up to 10 times better].
MAIN CHARACTERISTICS
- Excellent wear resistance
- Low coefficient of friction

- Good sliding properties
- Good thermal insulation properties
- Easy machining
APplicaTIONS
- Sliding rules
- Linear motion bushes
- Slip parts without any lubrication and small speeds
