Machined Applications

Construction

Nylacast have been working with many large Bluechip companies in the Construction industry for over 35 years. We have worked very closely with Technical and Design Engineers, to develop new applications and find the most successful alternative to metal components. 

Benefits of Nylacast components:

  • Exceptional resistance to wear and abrasion
  • High impact strength
  • Corrosion resistance
  • Self-lubricating, which eliminates routine/costly maintenance
  • Low co-efficient of friction
  • Light weight - typically 1/7th the weight of steel
  • 25 times the life of phosphor bronze
  • High visibility colours for increased safety

Typical applications:

  • Washers
  • Wear plates
  • Chain guides
  • Crane Pads/Outrigger pads
  • Slide blocks
  • Pulleys/sheaves
