WEAR RESISTANT AND SELF LUBRICATING NYLON COMPONENTS for MINING APPLICATIONS
MLON provides many wear resistant nylon components to the mining industry that reduce maintenance and extend the life of equipment.
Materials are available that contain solid lubricant additives, have high pressure-velocity (PV) values, and excellent wear resistance. In many applications, the high wear resistance can be achieved without start-up or running lubrication. These materials also reduce periodic maintenance which lowers overall maintenance costs.
MLON provides solutions for demanding applications where sliding, rolling, abrasion, and impact are causing premature wear on parts and equipment. We can also reduce or eliminate wear on mating materials, increasing the life of both the nylon component and the part it comes in contact with.
