TX-T1 Type

The TX code identifies a family of self-lubricating bearings and washers that are specially manufactured with a bonding of a filled PTFE coated fabric (lead free, in accordance to the European Parliament “ELV” directive 2000/53/EC) to various baking metal layers like: carbon steel, bronze, stainless steel and Inconel 625.
In addition to the standard metal-layers, Slib Italy has developed the special product TX-TI1 made of a Titanium metal-layer, and suggested for applications requiring:

  • high resistance to corrosion
  • excellent mechanical resistance
  • low specific gravity

This product is suitable also for medical applications.
