Internal lubricants and other wear reducing additives combined into plastic resins minimize friction that can lead to material loss and part failure, eliminates the need for applied external lubricants keeping mechanisms and components clean along with enhancing long-term reliability.
Elimination of the slip-stick phenomenon common among plastic ensures smooth operation of moving parts, reduction in squeaks and other noise between mated surfaces, abrasion resistance that minimizes unsightly surface marring, and vibration dampening are all ideal uses for wear resistant plastic compounds.
