SP-1
- is the unfilled base resin. It provides maximum physical
strength, elongation and toughness and the best electrical
and thermal insulation.
SP-21 -
has 15% by weight graphite filler added to provide
low wear and friction for bearings, thrust washers
and dynamic seals.
SP-22 -
has 40% by weight graphite filler added. This provides
the same properties as SP-21 for wear and friction
plus improved dimensional stability . SP-22 has
the lowest coefficient of thermal expansion of all
the grades.
SP-211 -
has 15% graphite and 10% by weight Teflon® fluorocarbon
resin added. SP-211 has the lowest coefficient
of friction over a wide range of operating conditions.
It also has the lowest wear rate up to 300°F.
SP-3 -
has 15% by weight molybdenum disulfide added to provide
lubrication for seals and bearings in vacuum or dry
environments.
