In our most recent application, a major
manufacturer of agricultural equipment
depends on Ultracomp® UC200 bearings for
the smooth operation of its tillage and
seeding attachments. The environment is
dirty, full of rocks, mud, fertilizers and
everything else you would find in a field.
Ultracomp® is self-lubricating, easy to use machine, has exceptional resistance to vibration and impact, and an
ultimate compressive strength of up to 54,000 psi. Ultracomp® is produced using synthetic resins and
reinforcing fibers with a series of internal lubricants. Therefore, it is an excellent choice for wet or dry, dirty
or clean applications, and where loads exceed all other non-metallic bearing materials.
Ultracomp® excels in linear, oscillating, and rotary applications that require high load and low speed. It is
available in tube, sheet stock, or can be fabricated into custom bearings to your specifications.
- UC200 – Bearing Grade Polyester/Graphite Composite
- Designed for high load, high impact, slow speed, and vibratory applications. UC200 has
excellent abrasion resistance, does not require lubrication, and has extremely low moisture
absorption. Runs best on shafts with RC30 or higher.
- UC300 – Bearing Grade Polyester/PTFE Composite
- Similar in construction to UC200, PTFE lubricant added to resin matrix for rotary or linear
applications to reduce its coefficient of friction. Runs well against stainless and aluminum.
- UC400 – Bearing Grade Polyester/MOS2 Composite
- Similar in construction to UC200 with moly lubricant for slow rotary, salt water, and dry oscillatory
applications.
- UC500 – Bearing Grade Blended Fiber/Graphite Composite
- Unique interwoven laminate using PTFE, polyester fibers, and graphite lubricant. Excellent
material for full rotary applications where self-lubricated low friction and long wear is required.
