The fabric-lined series of DuPont™ Vespel® ASB parts offers great load-carrying capacity, while providing a self-lubricating surface. Using fabrics that combine the low friction properties of Teflon® PTFE with other high-strength fibers results in a liner that is durable, yet won’t damage the mating surface. The liner is adhesively bonded to a metal backing that is selected to match the CTE of the mating components and for its galvanic compatibility. This metallic support provides the compressive load capability of the assembly. Applications: Composite, fiber-reinforced fabrics for: - Washers
- Slide Blocks
- Bushings
- Bumper Pads
- Brackets
Benefits:- Ideal for high-load and high temperature applications
- Self-lubricating
