Original Material "S" ® plus+ LF [FS]

Original Material "S" ® plus+ LF [FS] when developing this material Murtfeldt managed tofurther slash the sliding friction coefficient by half. The particularly great feature of this material is that this value is constant and is achieved even at low friction intensities. The required driving force is drastically reduced, meaning that your motors need less energy and are thus significantly more economical to run. This innovative material enables an increased machine running speed at the same time as less abrasion and thus a lower maintenance requirement. As a result, the material significantly contributes to an increase in your productivity. A member of the S plus family Production based on PE-UHMW SG 1.1.
