Rollon bearings manufactures low friction tb slideway engineered thermoplastic compound for use in linear bearing elements to avoid metal-to-metal sliding contacts. These low friction materials for guideways are self-lubricating, wear resistant material. The thermoplastic compound material provides advantages like low friction stick slip-free operation, better positioning accuracy, repeatability, vibration damping, and long life with minimum wear. The low friction material for use in guideways are available with salient features like dimensionally stable, maintenance-free and can be operated with or without lubrication for short duration; 115 kg/cm² allowable bearing pressure and is suitable for high speed applications according to the conditions. This material is applied extensively on the latest guideways and reconditioning of guideways in spms, cncs and conventional machine tools. The company supplies this low friction material in 0.8 to 4.0 mm thickness and standard 12" width and length as per customers requirements.
