Torlon®
Torlon®
is the highest performing melt processable plastic. It has superior
resistance to elevated temperatures. It is capable of performing under
severe stress conditions at continuous temperatures to 500°F (260°C).
Parts machined from Torlon® stock shapes
provide greater compressive strength and higher impact resistance than
most advanced engineering plastics. Its extremely low coefficient of
linear thermal expansion and high creep resistance deliver excellent
dimensional stability over its entire use range. Torlon®
is an amorphous material with a Tg (glass transition temperature) of
537°F (280°C). GRADES: Torlon ® 4203 (Electrical
Grade)
Torlon ® 4203 extruded PAI offers excellent
compressive strength and the highest elongation of the Torlon
® grades. It also provides electrical insulation and
exceptional impact strength. This grade is commonly used for electrical
connectors and insulators due to its high dielectric strength.
Torlon ® 4301 (Bearing
Grade)
Torlon ® 4301 extruded PAI is primarily used
for wear and friction parts. It offers a very low expansion rate, low
coefficient of friction and exhibits little or no slip-stick in use.
Torlon ® 4301's flexural modulus of 1,000,000
psi is higher than most other advanced engineering plastics. This grade
excels in severe service wear applications such as non- lubricated
bearings, seals, bearing cages and reciprocating compressor parts.
Torlon ® 5530 (Glass-Reinforced
Grade)
Torlon ® 5530 is 30% glass reinforced,
compression molded PAI. It is ideal for higher load structural or
electronic applications. This grade is similar in composition to Torlon
® 5030 PAI (injection molded). It is selected
for larger shapes or when the greatest degree of dimensional control is
required. Applications include burn-in sockets, gears, valve plates,
impellers, rotors, terminal strips, and insulators. Available data
