ADVANTAGES
-
Low Cost
-
LightWeight
-
Saving of power consumption 45%-70%
-
Has 10-20 times Bearing Life longer than Bronze’s
-
Lubrication costs are considerably cut down. Water lubricated, has a low friction & High wear resistance.
-
Saving on machining costs.
-
Prolongs the shaft life.
-
Heat & Electric Insulating.
-
Resistance to shocks and vibrations.
-
Resistance to corrosion.
The Coefficient of friction of Phenolic Plastic Bearing is 10-20 times lesser than that of Bronze, as shown below:
Coefficient of friction –
Bronze Bearing 0.06 – 0.11
Roller Bearing 0.002 – 0.005
Phenolic Plastic Bearing 0.004 – 0.006
Thus, this conserves operational resources, maximizes production, spells overall efficiency and more than offsets its initial cost.
