7 – Bearings Shaft hardness becomes more important with higher PV-values and / or the expected service life. A highly polished surface does not improve wear behaviour Bearings and bushings of ZYTEL® nylon resin and DELRIN® if the hardness is insufficient. acetal resin are used in numerous commercial applica- tions. ZYTEL® is uniquely suited to abrasive atmospheres There are nevertheless a great number of bearing appli- such as in cement plants and in factories where dust is a cations which perform satisfactorily against soft metals constant problem. Bearings of ZYTEL® have been used suc- running at low speed and load, such as bearings for clocks cessfully under diverse environmental conditions including and counter mechanisms. DELRIN® acetal resin generally the presence of various oils, greases, chemicals, reagents performs better than other plastics against soft metals. and proprietary compositions, many of which are harmful If a bearing fails, it is, however, most important to carefully to other types of plastic materials. check the hardness of the metal shaft surface since it may account partially for unsatisfactory performance. Bearings of DELRIN® acetal resin offer the unique charac- teristic of no ‘‘Slip-stick’’, or the static friction coefficient Bearing Surface being equal or lower than dynamic. Typical applications
