DuPont™ Vespel® parts & shapes

If insulation is less important than low-friction properties, then you’re looking for graphite-enhanced SP-21. Automotive engineers love to use SP-21 for parts like thrust washers, bearings and seals — because the low-friction properties mean they work with or without lubrication.

Superior wear and low-friction properties for:

  • Thrust washers
  • Seal rings
  • Valve seats
  • Bearings
  • Seals

Benefits

  • Low wear at high bearing PVs
  • Low coefficient of friction
  • Long-term thermal stability
  • High stiffness
  • Low elongation
  • Outstanding performance with or without lubrication
  • Good strength and impact resistance
