Arlon ® 1160 is a glass-reinforced version of Arlon ® 1000 featuring significantly higher tensile strength and increased shear strength. Arlon ® 1160 is often selected when the operating temperature exceeds 300°Fz (149°C). The addition of glass raises the HDT and reduces the coefficient of thermal expansion. Other benefits include a lower coefficient of friction and improved wear properties. Arlon ® 1160 and related grades are successfully being used as sealing components, valve seats, bearings, back-up rings, and high-temperature insulators.

Greene Tweed offers precision plastic components for a variety of demanding semiconductor applications. These components are made from a full range of high-perfor-mance plastic materials, including Arlon ® 1287 LI, which is ideal for applications requiring exceptionally high physical properties, wear resistance, and chemical compatibility.

Greene Tweed offers precision plastic components for a variety of demanding, semiconductor applications. These components are made from a full range of high-perfor-mance plastic materials, including Arlon ® 1330. Ideal for applications requiring exceptional wear resistance and chemical compatibility, Arlon ® 1330 provides good dimensional stability without the addition of carbon fibers.

Arlon ® 2400, an extension of Greene Tweed’s Arlon product line, meets the harsh environment requirements necessary for performance in downhole appli-cations. Arlon ® 2400 provides the same broad chemical resistance of other Arlon ® materials but with higher temperature capabilities and increased dimensional stability. Arlon ® 2400 has the ability to replace metal parts in high-temperature applications due to its excellent strength-to-weight ratio.

WR® 300 is a carbon-fiber reinforced compression molded PEEK™ often selected by pump manufacturers and users for pump bushings and case or impeller wear rings. Maximum service life is achieved in clean. lubricated and/or moist environments. WR 300 allows the pump user to increase pump effiency by running tighter wear ring clearances while decreasing potential pump damage when pumps are cavitated or experience radial bearing failures.

WR ® 525 is a thermoplastic composite consisting of carbon fiber in a PEEK matrix. Because of its unique thermal expansion properties, WR ® 525 is ideal for use as impeller wear rings, bushings and case wear rings. WR ® 525 allows the pump user to increase pump efficiency by running tighter wear ring clearances, while decreasing potential pump damage when pumps are cavitated or experience down-line bearing failures. WR ® 525 is API 610 approved for (stationary/stationary and rotating) wear applications.
