Development aims
Better initial conformability, moderation of local contact, and lower friction under mixed lubrication thanks to polymer coating.
Development concept
The polymer suppresses adhesive wear with the shaft ⇒ Better wear resistance
The solid lubricant reduces the shear force at the contact points with the shaft ⇒ lower friction
Performance
Fatigue resistance
Wear resistance
Low Friction Effect
Stribeck Curve
Application example
- Connecting rod bearing
- Main bearing
