ATCORP , ATC-103™ composite material structure have mild steel backing intermediate layer of porous bronze sintering and sliding layer of PTFE ( Poly tetra fluoro Ethylene) with specialized fillers.Mild steel Backing provide strength to composite structure while intermediate layer of bronze provide bonding of steel with PTFE and absorb heat during working hours.PTFE and Specialized Fillers works as self-lubricating agent and form hydrodynamic layer during operation and avoid metal to metal contact for minimizing wear . Specialized fillers helps to minimize wear and provide good cavitation and flow corrosion resistance.ATC-103 Material comes with three option like tin flash , copper flash or Zn Flashing also to avoid rusting of steel during transit /storage
