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.
Fabric for high temperatures which allow operating temperatures up to 200°C, while maintaining compression resistance.
Typical Applications: Stamping presses, Handling and transportation systems in the automotive industry, Naval and offshore applications, Bearings for amusement park equipment, Earthwork equipment.
