TIMCAL TIMREX® KS15 Primary Synthetic Graphite
Categories: Carbon; Graphite; Other Engineering Material; Additive/Filler for Polymer

Material Notes: TIMREX Primary Synthetic Graphite is produced in a unique highly controlled graphitization process which assures narrow specifications and unequalled consistent quality due to: monitoring of all production and processing stages, strict final inspection, and clearly defined development processes.

TIMREX Primary Synthetic Graphite shows unique properties thanks to the combination of a consistent purity, perfect crystalline structure and well defined texture.

Tribological and mechanical properties:

  • Medium toughness
  • Good lubrication properties
Advantages and applications:
  • Low friction coefficient
  • Low wear of the counterpart
  • Good transfer-film formation
  • High electrical conductivity
  • Suitable for pitch-bonded and resin-bonded brushes
  • Special alloys (Al, Mg, Ti)Hard metals (WC, TiC, Mixed Carbides)
  • Fe-sintered engineering parts
  • Fe-self lubricating engineering parts
  • Fe-friction parts
  • Copper/bronze bearings
  • Copper friction parts copper clutch facings
