iglide® A160 is characterized by extreme media resistance at a low cost. Tribologically optimized, the material can be used in temperatures up to +194°F (+90°C) and also conforms to demands of the food processing industry. The profile of properties is completed by the "optical detectability", i.e. the blue color, often required in the industry.
Our iglide® A160 and a competitor material made of PTFE with fibre glass were tested in a linear wear test.
The test showed the following:
Linear wear [mg/km] tribo-tape at 0.16m/s; 1MPa and 23°C against AISI 303
