Kamatics Kamtough Wear StripKAMTough

CGB Precision Products has teamed up with Kamatics Specialty Bearings to bring you custom engineered bearing solutions designed to address some of your most demanding applications.

Kamatics KAMTough Wear Strip material is a thin sheet of self-lubricating bearing material engineered to provide exceptional wear and abrasion resistance.

Features

  • Extended Life
  • Superior Performance
  • Cost Effective

Benefits

  • High Load Capacity
  • Durable
  • Fretting Barrier
  • Fluid Compatibility
  • Shock Resilience

 

KAMTough is a superior alternative to Delrin, UHMW and Teflon Tape

KAMTough is used where impact resistance is required, under edge loading, in heavy abrasion applications, and where gross amounts of contaminants can be expected. KAMTough is 23% harder than standard UHMW. We incorporate Teflon suspended in our thermosetting resin matrix for strength and maximum durability. Offered with either a peel and stick adhesive or prepared surface (peel ply) for epoxy bonding. Standard sizes are 12"x12" or 12"x48" sheets, with thickness options of light (.020"), medium (.032"), heavy (.060:) or plate stock (.120")

KAMTough Data

Typical Applications

KAMTough Wear Strip is designed for applications where standard off the shelf wear resistant plastics fall short in performance. It can eliminated metal-to-metal wear and fretting damage on surfaces exposed to excessive rubbing or scuffing. Use the material where impact resistance is required, under edge loading, in heavy abrasion applications, and where gross amounts of contaminants can be expected.
