| KESTAMIDâ |
|
Kestamid® is an engineering
plastic used commonly for its superior mechanical, physical, chemical
and electrical properties. It is replacing aluminum, copper, bronze,
steel, fiber, brass and other metals in many applications with superior
advantages
as it is lightweight, resistant to corrosion, impact and wear and and operates silently
without lubrication.
Making use of techniques specific to production of
Kestamid® and mechanical resistance of metals, it is possible to make
gears with steel core, pulleys, mixer rotors or produce Nylon® cylinders
with steel mills.
Production technique of Kestamid® is extremely economical as it
enables production of bearings, gears, wear plates and pulleys of
any dimension and quantity. Some application areas are:
-
Rotating and
sliding machinery components
-
Gears that operate without lubrication and silently
-
Wear plates,
pulleys
-
Bearings and
bushes
-
Components with
steel core support
Kestamid®
operates efficiently as roller mill
bearings and guides, roller mill heads and sliding purlins. Kestamid®
is also used widely in internal regulated
rolling pins that help hold metal sheet rolls. |

KESTOILâ, KESTLUBâ and
KESTAMID-HSâ |
|
For bearings and guides without
lubrication, Kestoil® is an ideal
self-lubricated engineering plastic that is structurally unique in many
ways. Kestoil® and
Kestlub® have lower coefficients of friction,
higher wear resistance and lower water absorption feature compared to
Kestamid®. These superior assets make them ideal bearing materials. Kestlub®
with its solid lubricant additive is better fit in bearing applications
with high pressure and load. In
high temperatures, Kestamid-HS®
should be preferred; it has a longer operation life in the presence of
high levels of heat. |

EFALONâ |
Efalon® (PTFE) is a very valuable material as it has perfect
resistance to all chemicals and corrosion and can be used in a very wide temperature
interval. Nothing sticks onto
its surface. It is slippery and has a very low
coefficient of friction.
It is preferred in gaskets and compression packings where sealing feature is
required, in corrosive environments, picking bath systems, sprayers used for
heating acid baths with steam, in pumps and valves. The ideal material for
piston mills, wear rings and hydraulic rings used widely in
iron and steel industry is compounded Efalon®. |

ULPOLENâ |
|
In sand,
clinker and raw material bunkers, internal surfaces of silos and bunkers are
lined with Ulpolen®
to obtain regular and homogeneous flow. |
