UHMW & URETHANE PLASTIC MATERIAL FOR SAWMILL EQUIPMENT
Increased production speeds have lead to increased wear on equipment causing preventable downtime. MLON nylon has the ability to outperform UHMW’s and urethane’s in many sawmilling applications.
Premium Grades for Sawmills:
(Pressure-Velocity-Maximum) is used frequently as a chain bed/liner which requires approximately 75% less lubrication and significantly increases the life of the chain. The bed is precision machined to ensure maximum efficiency. It’s also easy to install and requires little maintenance.
MLON has the same positive qualities as standard nylon grades – excellent impact values, wear resistance, and rigidity; but has the added benefit of less moisture absorption and a lower temperature tolerance.
Benefits:
- Exceptional resistance to wear and abrasion
- High impact strength
- Self-lubricating
- Corrosion and chemical resistance
- Low co-efficient of friction
- High visibility and colors for increased safety
- Lightweight
Applications:
- Chain bed for sharp chain
- Wear strips
- Bearing blocks
- Hanger bearings
- Kiln cart bushings
- Sheaves & Pulleys
- Wear plate
