Polyamide-imide (PAI) - Torlon®
Standard Torlon offers excellent compressive and impact strengthas well as high dielectric strength and electrical insulation properties. Maximum continuous operating temperature is 250°C.
FEATURES
 High temperature. Dimensional
stability.
High E-modulus
Good abrasion resistance and low friction
coefficient.
Flame resistance (V.0)
WEAK POINT
Very high cost.
The machining is difficult
APPLICATION
Mechanical: the dimensional stability at temperature is high, as well as the heat resistance. Components obtained by PAI have a very high wear resistance and are self-lubricating. It is used to produce high performance pieces at low as well as at high temperatures: bearings, cams, precision gears, etc.
Food contact: it is not used in contact with food
Electrical: very good dielectric and insulating properties.
Chemical: very good chemical resistance
