Material: PPS Internally Lubricated - Techtron® HPV

Reinforced, internally lubricated polyphenylene sulphide material offering excellent wear resistance, load bearing capabilities and dimensional stability even when exposed to aggresive chemicals and continuous operating temperatures up to 220°c. Proved to be a cost effective alternative to PEEK which may be over specified for certain applications.
