Nylacast Oilon
Nylacast Oilon
Nylacast Oilon made a monumental breakthrough with the cast nylon polymer. It was the world's first genuine lubricated cast nylon material, launched in 1974. The liquid oil lubricant is distributed throughout the profile and does not drain, spin, leech, or dry out. It requires no replenishment, ensuring constant high performance when in situ.
The enhanced material properties solve many industry challenges. It offers improved wear and sliding frictional properties, crucial for extending the equipment lifecycle and reducing downtime. Its superior abrasion resistance translates to more durable components, minimising frequent replacements and ensuring smooth machinery operations, especially in precision applications.
In addition, Nylacast Oilon is renowned for increasing bearing life – up to five times that of natural cast nylon and twenty-five times greater than phosphor bronze.
The versatility of Nylacast Oilon is further highlighted, as it is suitable for use in both the food and pharmaceutical industries, meeting stringent industry standards and enhancing operational efficiency, safety, and product integrity.
