Our materials are ideal for replacing bushings made of bronze and other materials in deck applications. Our thermoplastic grades are available in different configurations and sizes so that the customer can be supplied quickly. All our products are easy to machine and install.
As references, we have products installed and operating in cranes, fairleads, winches, ball joints, lifeboat davits, etc.
Benefits:
Ideal to replace any grease-lubricated material in applications with high loads and/or where a very stable dimensional behaviour is required.
Ideal in applications where there are vibrations or materials with elasticity are needed to withstand shocks without plastic deformation.
With our ball joints you can say goodbye to daily preventive maintenance, since they do not need any type of lubrication. They do not corrode or seize up.
