  • Why is PTFE Better Than Grease for Bushing Lubricants?
    A bushing's load and dynamic speed condition create heat through high surface interaction that generates friction. Heat, if not properly adjusted, will cause a bearing to fail. Lubrication is the key element in controlling bushing
  • Magnalube-G Case Study - Duke University
    for better lubricants in this field. One lubricant, an all-purpose grease reinforced in its lubricity and "staying power" by a suspension of PTFE resin powder is being used to the air conditioning and refrigeration maintenance field with promising success. At Duke University the superintendant of the Air
  • Why are Rod End and Spherical Bearings Teflon-lined?
    A PTFE (Du Pont trademarked product) liner in a spherical bearing or rod end is a component that allows the unit to be "self-lubricating". Metal on metal bearings need to be lubricated. In certain applications this can be difficult to accomplish. Grease lubrication attracts dirt and may prematurely
