Chemically Resistant Threaded Plastic Bearings for Use in Hydrofluoric Acid Environments

This case study introduces bearings used in transfer carriers designed for operation in hydrofluoric acid environments. This project involved selecting suitable bearings for a transport system operating in a chemical environment using hydrofluoric acid (HF). Hydrofluoric acid is an extremely aggressive chemical that corrodes many metals, making conventional metal bearings unsuitable due to corrosion and durability issues. For this reason, the use of chemically resistant plastic bearings was a fundamental requirement. Material selection for hydrofluoric acid-resistant bearings Materials suitable for use in HF environments include: PCTFE (Polychlorotrifluoroethylene) PPS (Polyphenylene sulfide) PP (Polypropylene) Rigid PVC In chemical environments, selecting the appropriate bearing material is critical and depends on factors such as[…..]

High-Load Plastic Roller Bearings for Solar Cells

Conventional plastic deep groove ball bearings use balls that rotate at a point, whereas plastic roller bearings use rollers that rotate along a line, allowing them to withstand greater loads. Currently, they are used in applications such as conveyor rollers for transporting materials in chemically-laden environments within solar cell production facilities. Plastic Roller Bearings This is how the roller looks like. Related Pages ・Custom-made Ball Bearings ・Chemical Environment ・Wells & Environmental Pumps Back to Case studies

Plastic Thrust Bearings in Waterbeds

Our plastic thrust bearings were used in a waterbed with a massage function. The waterbed is rotated by the force of the water jet, creating a spiral water flow that is used for the massage. The bearings are used in the nozzles. Since it is used exclusively underwater, this environment is very suitable for plastic bearings. Water acts as a substitute for lubricant and helps dissipate the heat generated by rotation. Therefore, a longer lifespan can be expected compared to use in dry environments.

Plastic Deep Groove Ball Bearings for Transporting Inserted Plums

Rust-resistant, corrosion-resistant, ideal for production lines in food manufacturing. Safe for use in food as they are grease-free. Can be cleaned with water. Plastic deep groove ball bearings for transporting inserted plums This is a plastic deep groove ball bearing designed for transporting pickled plums. In the manufacturing process of pickled plums, salt and citric acid are used. Metallic bearings run the risk of corrosion and rust, or the potential for grease to contaminate the food. Plastic bearings, however, do not corrode even in the presence of salt and citric acid. Since no grease is used, it’s an environmentally friendly product that can be safely used for extended periods.

Integrated Plastic Bearing Sprocket (Sprocket Wheel)

Stainless, corrosion-resistant gears Integrated Plastic Bearing Sprocket (Sprocket Wheel) We manufacture gears for various applications starting from one piece. No lubrication required, hence safe and worry-free. This is an integrated plastic bearing sprocket (sprocket wheel) that can be used in environments where liquids are present, such as cleaning lines or environments where lubricants are not required. Being made of plastic, it does not rust or corrode. Additionally, it is recommended for production lines, especially in the food industry, as it does not require lubricants. We offer a variety of materials that are corrosion-resistant and can withstand high temperatures. We manufacture products that meet a wide range of requirements, starting from[…..]

Acid-Resistant Plastic Bearings for Use in Highly Acidic Environments

In cleaning systems for semiconductor and LCD industries, there is an aggressive acidic atmosphere that corrodes conventional metal bearings. As a solution in such cases, plastic bearings are employed.
