Along with outstanding wear resistance, Ertalyte TX offers an extremely low coefficient of friction and high pressure-velocity capabilities. It is available from stock in many rod and sheet sizes, including custom sizes and tubular shapes.
ErtalyteŽ TX has wear-resistance and dimensional stability surpassing other common wear grade plastics. It also has excellent resistance to many harsh chemicals, including aggressive food products, cleaning solutions and petroleum products.
Because of the material's unique composition, its wear resistance increases as bearing velocities increase. Adding to the product's strengths are its ability to maintain tight dimensions and close tolerances in wet environments unsuitable for nylon materials.
Ertalyte TX is used for machined mechanical components, involving both high-pressure and high-velocity conditions. The enhanced wear material is also well-suited for applications involving soft metal and plastic mating surfaces, including gears and bearings which require no startup or running lubrication. Further, since Ertalyte TX has FDA and USDA compliance, it can be used for machined components for food packaging and processing equipment.
