Polyamide Materials

The Polymer Products Business of Saint-Gobain Performance Plastics has recently developed a grade of Meldin® materials for highly demanding applications in which metal and other materials will not perform adequately. Applications include thrust washers, sealing rings, bearings and fork pads. The Meldin® 3100 series offers 4 tribological grades that satisfy application needs of high velocity or high pressure conditions, with either hard or soft mating surfaces. The materials can operate in temperature environments of 450º F continuously and can exhibit excellent heat dissipation properties. The Meldin 3110 grade exhibits excellent wear/friction properties, even at elevated temperatures, has a dynamic coefficient of friction value of 0.12 based on test conditions with no lubrication.
