Hollow Bar in PEEK Mod 152.4 mm black

PEEK Mod is PEEK rebuilt into a bearing grade. Mod means that the base plastic is blended with carbon fiber, graphite and PTFE, developed for bearings and sliding surfaces, and that mix gives a surface that slides easily and lasts a long time against steel without lubricating oil.

The base is the same tough PEEK, a high performance plastic for the toughest environments, semi-crystalline with a melting point at 341 degrees. The material runs continuously at 260 degrees and takes 300 degrees for short periods, picks up hardly any water and burns slowly with fire class V-0. That makes Mod a first choice for plain bearings and wear parts that have to run dry in a hot environment, where oil is not an option.

This version is a hollow bar in black PEEK Mod with a 152.4 mm outside diameter. Hollow bars are tube blanks with a ready hole in the middle, made for turning out plain bushings and bearing sleeves without first boring out a solid rod. The heavy dimension suits plain bearings with a large inside diameter.
