deva.tex®
high performance self-lubricating bearing material
CHARACTERISTICS
deva.tex® is a high performance self-lubricating sliding material with a glass fiber reinforced carrying layer. The machinable sliding layer consists of fibers which are embedded in epoxy resin. The resin carries PTFE as lubricant for excellent tribological performance.
deva.tex® bearings are available up to 1.000 mm and are characterized by a very high corrosion and wear resistance. They are insensitive to contamination as well as to vibrations and shock loads. In addition to standard dimension, special geometries can be machined.
Max. possible outer diameter 1.000 mm
Bearing forms available in standard dimensions
Cylindrical Bush
Customized components are also available.
