Why POLYGLIDE®
Replaces bronze, brass, babbitt, nylon and wood.
Ideal for high load, slow speed applications — and where other plastics fail under high pressure.
Compare materialsSelf Lubricating
Lubricants are dispersed evenly in the material, eliminating the need for lubrication.
Low Maintenance
Reduces or eliminates external lubrication systems; no periodic maintenance required.
Wet or Dry Running
Stable in salt or fresh water, dry and dirty environments; withstands dry running.
Increased Efficiency
Running clearance can be lowered by up to 50%, increasing efficiency.
Low Wear Rate
Higher resistance to wear and tear, and to corrosion of critical components.
High Edge & Shock Load
Stable without damage under side loading and slight misalignment. Protects the shaft.
POLYGLIDE® vs conventional materials
Why engineers switch from metal & plastic.
| Property | POLYGLIDE® | Bronze / Brass | Babbitt | Nylon / Plastic |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Lubrication needed | None — self-lubricating | Greasing required | Oil bath required | Often required |
| Water / wet running | Excellent, minimal swell | Corrodes, seizes | Poor | Swells, creeps |
| High load, slow speed | Excellent | Wears, galling | Deforms | Fails under pressure |
| Weight | ~1/6th of steel | Heavy | Heavy | Light |
| Shaft protection | Protects the shaft | Can score shaft | Embeds debris | Can score shaft |
| Maintenance | Fit and forget | Regular greasing | Oil system upkeep | Frequent replacement |
