For example, our service department refurbished peak cap bearings in a rectangular clarifier at a wastewater treatment plant, saving time and money. We then quickly got their primary tank back up and running 24/7.
Thordon SXL is a crosslinked elastomeric polymer alloy bearing. It’s made from thermosetting resin and three-dimensional, crosslinked condensation polymers.
The following properties allow Thordon Bearings to work under extreme conditions.
Resilience, toughness, and material memory
Outstanding abrasion resistance
Self-lubricating capabilities
Low friction
Early Hydrodynamics film development
Acoustically quieter
Stiffer than rubber and capable of supporting operation at lower shaft RPM
Increased resistance to particle abrasive wear
Improved wear life compared to XL.
Contact CDWdrives to learn how Thordon can benefit your application by performing well in harsh environments. It is ideal for peak cap bearings and is used in any application where high abrasion, corrosion, high load impacts, and high humidity can impact performance and cause damage to components.
