Case study: pivot bush made from Oilon polymer aids swivelling of shoe plate download
Nylacast’s Oilon polymer-based material has been used to make a pivot bush. In this application, the pivot shoe bush aids the swivelling of the shoe plate. The previous pivot bush was prone to seizing. However, as the Nylacast component is self lubricated, it requires less maintenance, offers an increase in wear life, provides protection against corrosion and is more cost effective.
Case study: Nylacast's Natural 6 polymer material aids line marking process download
Nylacast’s Natural 6 polymer-based material has been used in a line marking application. Line marking guides can be used to mark football, hockey, tennis and rugby pitches. The Nylacast line marker ensures a constant line width on uneven ground and is able to adjust to various line thicknesses.
Case study: tray support roller made from Nylube improves potato-grading process download
In this food-processing application, a tray support roller has been made from Nylacast’s Oilon polymer-based material. The reciprocating tray runs on rollers while grading potatoes. As the Nylacast component is self lubricated, it offers benefits such as low maintenance, an increase in wear life and protection against corrosion.
Case study: Nylacast Nylube polymer material increases the wear life of end cap bearings download
In this food-processing application, end cap bearings made from Nylacast’s Nylube polymer-based material are being used for steel stirrers. As the Nylacast material is self lubricated, it requires less maintenance than phosphor bronze, which was previously used in this application. It also offers an increase in wear life and protection against corrosion.
Case study: Nylacast's Oilon polymer material replaces polyethlene in bush application download
A bush made from Nylacast’s Oilon polymer-based material has been placed on the pivot arm of a seed chute. As the Nylacast component is self lubricated, it performs better and requires less maintenance than the original polyethlene component. It also offers an increase in wear life and protection against abrasion.
