Vertec

Vertec™ 5028 is a high performance PEEK (polyetheretherketone) composite for the most demanding dynamic and structural applications. This bearing grade material, reinforced and with proprietary lubrication, is capable of performing extremely well in high pressure and high velocity applications.

Vertec™ 5028

Vertec™ 1025 is an FDA compliant filled PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene) material that possesses excellent load and wear characteristics, and works well against soft as well as hard surfaces, like aluminum, mild steel, and 303/316 stainless steels. It is capable of running in steam, wet, dry, and vacuum environments - without any moisture or lubrication. It is widely used in food processing industries.

Vertec™ 1025

Vertec™ 1015 is a glass fiber and molybdenum disulfide filled polytetrafluorethylene (PTFE). It is used for bushings, bearings, and sealing elements where low creep properties with good sealability and low wear rates are desirable.

Vertec™ 1015

Vertec™ 5020 is a bearing grade carbon fiber reinforced PEEK (polyetheretherketone) material. It offers higher modulus, mechanical strength and resistance to deformation under load than VERTEC 5010. Due to the presence of carbon fibers, thermal conductivity of this material is 3.5 times higher than VERTEC 5000 (unreinforced PEEK), thus it dissipates heat at a faster rate. It also gives stable and reliable ESD performance providing maximum protection from static charge build-up.

Vertec™ 5020

Vertec™ 1020 is a carbon-graphite filled PTFE (polytetrafluorethylene) material. Its ability to run under dry or wet conditions along with its low wear rate makes it an ideal high temperature bearing material. It also offers high load bearing capability, relative to other flouropolymers, for many general-purpose industrial applications.

Vertec™ 1020

Vertec™ 1023 is bronze filled PTFE (polytetrafluoroethylene). It provides better creep resistance than most of the PTFE alloys. It possesses high compressive strength and good wear and sliding properties. Most common applications include piston rings (compressors), bushes, bearings, and wear pads for high compression sliding applications. Certain chemicals may easily attack bronze.

Vertec™ 1023

Vertec™ 1011 is a polymer filled PTFE (polytetrafluorethylene) material. It exhibits good sealability, very low coefficient of friction and low wear rate under dry running conditions. Its non-abrasive nature makes it an ideal sealing material for use against soft metal surfaces in dynamic applications. It has been met with great success in high speed, high temperature compressor applications. It is widely used for piston cups and oxygen compressors.

Vertec™ 1011

Vertec™ 1021 is a filled PTFE (polytetrafluorethylene) material. It exhibits good sealability, low coefficient of friction and very low wear rate under dry running conditions. It is a little harder and a bit more abrasive than other similar use materials, 1011, and 1110, however it wears better and can handle higher speed applications. It is an ideal sealing material for use against metal surfaces in dynamic applications. It has performed especially well in air compressor applications such as piston cups.

Vertec™ 1021

Vertec™ 5025 is a proprietary, bearing grade PEEK (polyetheretherketone) material, reinforced with carbon fibers and internally lubricated with different proprietary lubricants to improve dry running capabilities. Tribological evaluations under dry running conditions have shown its friction coefficient and wear rate to be much lower than other bearing grade composite materials available in the market.
