Polygon LFM Material Composition
POLYLUBE® LFM is Specially developed material for demanding application where ultra-low Coefficient of friction is required. based on the same filament wound structure as the PolyLube MRP. It is just change in wear liner , The result is that the LFM bearing has a high static and dynamic load capacity along with very low Coefficient of friction.Working process is through the same film transfer process as the MRP Series bearing. The result of low Coefficient of friction sliding layer with the same high strength filament wound backing, and the same self-lubrication process combine to make the LFM an ideal solution for applications where very low Coefficient of friction is desired.
