Extreme Plastic

Torlon 4301 (Bearing Grade PAI)

This Duratron PAI is primarily used for wear and friction parts. It offers a very low expansion rate, low coefficient of friction and exhibits little or no slip-stick in use. Duratron T4301’s flexural modulus of 1,000,000 psi, is higher than most other advanced engineering plastics. This grade excels in severe service wear applications such as non-lubricated bearings, seals, bearing cages and reciprocating compressor parts.

Bearing cages, high temp bushings & bearings, reciprocating compressor components, seals
