There’s heat, and then there’s heat. The ASB-5000 family was created to withstand the kind of heat that melts glass. Our line of metal-supported composites should be first in mind when you need to design for intensely high-temperature environments. In such applications, ASB is superior to straight-metal parts, especially because of its self-lubricating properties.
Assemblies consisting of carbon graphite and metallic substrate for:
- Bushings
- Washers
- Slide blocks
- Track rollers
- Ball sockets
- Rod ends
- Self-aligning spherical bearings
- Clutch pads
Benefits
- Self lubricating
- Long wearing
- Low expansion rate
- Tolerates temperatures from crygenic to 1200°F
- Ideal for oxidative environments
