Fluorolon 4002 is a polyimide material reinforced with 15% graphite. This unique combination provides outstanding mechanical strength and wear resistance. The polymer can run continuous at 600 F with excursions short term intermittent to 900 F. This exceptional bearing material is suited for high load high PV applications. Also good in dry gas or vacuum environments.

APPLICATIONS:

Critical applications wear high temperature and high load bearings are required. This material has excellent chemical resistance .
