Vesconite Hilube
Self-lubricating Vesconite grade for wet conditions, with virtually zero water absorption; used in marine and pump bearings.
Description
Vesconite Hilube is an advanced bearing material in the Vesconite range, particularly suited to wet conditions, including marine and pump applications. It has virtually zero water absorption, is dimensionally stable and causes no bimetallic corrosion.
Key features
- Virtually zero water absorption; dimensionally stable
- No bimetallic corrosion
- Dry coefficient of friction on stainless steel of 0.08 – 0.12
- Suits tight running clearances
Applications
Marine stern tube, propeller and rudder bearings; pump impeller and casing wear rings, pump bowl and stuffing box bushings, and lineshaft bearings for vertical turbine pumps, including at a 1,000,000 m³/day seawater reverse osmosis desalination project.
