Graficomp Line (Self-lubricating Compounds)

Self-lubricating Compounds (Graficomp)

Graficomp are composite material soaking special synthetic tissues with thermo-fixed resins. The physical and mechanical properties of all the Graficomp material are an excellent option to tribology material.

The Graficomp composites can be uses in bearings, wear plates, self-lubricating guides and other compounds, replacing bronze and graphite bronze.

This line can be used in industry of power generation, petroleum and gas, and naval industry.

Now produced in Brazil

α (alfa) series

Polyester fabric with medium mesh and excellent mechanical strength.

Typical Applications: Stamping presses, Handling and transportation systems in the automotive industry, Naval and offshore applications, Bearings for amusement park equipment, Earthwork equipment.
