Monday, December 22, 2008
Metallized Carbon Corporation presents Metcar Grade 2500 and Metcar Grade 9800 from its
Resistox™ family of high temperature mechanical grades. Treated with a specially
formulated oxidation inhibitor, these bearings and thrust washers offer greatly
increased oxidation resistance without sacrificing their self-lubricating properties,
resulting in longer life.
For operating temperatures between 700°-1000º F, Metcar Grade 2500 is ideal for general purpose high temperature applications where conventional lubricants would breakdown and fail. Metcar 9800 addresses extreme temperature installations between 1000°-1100° F, such as furnaces, dryers, high temperature conveyors and dampers.
Bearings manufactured from Metcar materials are self-lubricating, non-galling, dimensionally stable and have high compressive strength. Boasting remarkable resistance to oxidation, Metcar materials are completely homogeneous and provide continuous lubrication for their service life, making them an excellent candidate for bearings and bearing assemblies for applications in extreme temperature conditions.
