In the 21st century, many vehicles are equipped with engineering plastic bearings. Used to replace metal plain bearings and rolling bearings, applications range from simple seat systems to high-temperature engine load mechanisms to modern diesel gearboxes or exhaust systems.
The bearing industry uses different materials to make different bearing components, and plastic is one of the most prominent. The plastic material is processed through a series of processes to achieve greater performance and longevity by achieving the desired properties.
Engineering plastics instead of metal as bearing materials have the advantages of low friction coefficient, high wear resistance and self-lubricating properties; good corrosion resistance, can work under harsh lubrication conditions, have the effect of eliminating noise; save bronze Metal materials; high production efficiency.
