Torlon®,
Aurum®, Victrex® PEEK - Transmission Thrust Washers
High temperature polymers in automotive transmissions
Advanced polymer thrust washers are used in automotive and
off highway
vehicle transmissions to replace the conventional steel and bi-metal varieties. The
superior wear properties of materials such as TorlonÒ PAI,
AurumÒ TPI and VictrexÒ PEEK in
these high temperature, lubricated applications have significantly improved both
maintenance and performance issues.
Allegheny molds a variety of these Thrust Washers and supplies parts to
required flatness and dimensional specifications while maximizing knit line strengths.
