Other Industrial Automotive and Automotive Parts Manufacturing Self-lubricating Thordon bearings offer increased wear life and reliability, elimination of oil and grease, and reduced operating noise in automotive and related parts manufacturing applications such as presses, materials handling and assembly equipment. Mining Thordon's high impact and abrasion resistant properties make it a natural bearing solution for the mining industry. Typical applications include off-highway truck suspension and loading equipment pivot bearings, drilling carriage roller bearings, mine car rocker arm and wheel bearings and stacker/reclaimer pivot and roller bearings. Screw Conveyors Thordon is widely used in screw conveyors in waste water, sewage and sludge applications; waste recycling and composting facilities; mining; grain handling and many other industries. Thordon's high resistance to abrasive wear, high impact resistance, significant noise reduction, low coefficient of friction and excellent self lubricating qualities make it an ideal choice for either dry or wet operations in these difficult applications. Sugar Harvesting and Processing In general sugar harvesting and processing operations, Thordon's high resistance to abrasion and impact resistance, grease free operation, low friction and easy machinability make it a natural choice for the dirty abrasive environments at sugar processing plants. |
