ATC-PP16 Material Composition

ATC-PP16 Bush Bearings are a type of plain bearing made from cast nylon and fillers, a high-performance engineering thermoplastic. They are widely used as a replacement for metal bushings and bearings in various industrial applications due to their exceptional properties and cost-effectiveness.ATC-PP16 is made by pouring molten nylon into a mold, resulting in larger, more complex shapes with excellent dimensional stability and potentially lower internal stresses.

Benefits of ATC-PP16

  • Self-lubricating:ATC-PP16 bushes are naturally self-lubricating, often eliminating the need for external lubrication and reducing maintenance requirements.
  • High strength and durability:ATC-PP16 boasts high tensile and compressive strength, making it suitable for demanding applications involving heavy loads and impact.
  • Excellent wear and abrasion resistance:ATC-PP16 inherent toughness and low Coefficient of friction lead to superior wear and abrasion resistance, extending the lifespan of the bush and mating components.
  • Corrosion resistance:Unlike metal, ATC-PP16 is resistant to rust and various chemicals, making it ideal for applications in corrosive environments like food and beverage processing, chemical industries, and marine environments.
  • Lightweight:ATC-PP16 is significantly lighter than metal, which reduces the overall weight of machinery and associated shipping costs.
  • Noise reduction:ATC-PP16 possesses good damping properties, absorbing vibrations and reducing noise levels during operation.
