Carbide
|
|
Carbides and carbide materials include silicon carbide, tungsten carbide and titanium carbide as well as other compounds of a metal (Ti, W, Cr, Zr) or metalloid (B, Si) and carbon. Carbides have excellent wear resistance and high hot hardness.
|
| |
Ceramic
|
|
Ceramic materials are non-metallic, inorganic compounds that include oxygen, carbon, or nitrogen such as aluminum oxide, silicon carbide, silicon nitride, and zirconium oxide ceramics. They have high melting points, wear resistance, and a wide range of electrical properties.
|
| |
Glass
|
|
Glass materials have a random, liquid-like (non-crystalline) molecular structure. They are heated to a temperature sufficient to produce a completely fused melt. When cooled, glass materials retain their amorphous structure. Glasses can be based on several different chemical systems, but silicate glasses are the most widely used. Silicate glasses are made from mixtures of cullet (crushed, recycled glass), sand, soda ash, limestone, and/or other additives.

Metal
|
|
Ferrous metals and alloys are based on iron and include carbon steels, alloy steels, stainless steels, cast iron, cast steel, maraging steel, and specialty or proprietary iron-based alloys. Nonferrous metals and alloys are not based on iron and include alloys of aluminum, copper, titanium, zinc, nickel, cobalt, tungsten, precious metals, and refractory metals.
|
| |
Plastic
|
|
Plastics and plastic materials are organic, synthetic or processed polymers that are supplied as raw materials or stock shapes. They typically consist of thermoplastic or thermosetting resins and can be made into many forms.
|
| |
Sapphire
|
|
Sapphire is a high purity, high density, single crystalline form of aluminum oxide, which may contain chromia, titania, yttria or other dopants. Sapphire is usually transparent or translucent. Sapphire ceramics are used in lasers, substrates, jewel bearings, watch crystals or other specialized optical, wear and electronic applications. Ruby, corundum, and topaz are other names for natural or synthetic sapphire. Ruby is chromium-doped sapphire used in optical filters and laser rods.

| |
Rubber / Elastomeric
|
|
Elastomers and rubber materials are characterized by their high degree of flexibility and elasticity (high reversible elongation or resilience). Natural rubber, synthetic rubber or elastomer materials include a variety of systems such as silicone, polyurethane, chloroprene, butyl, polybutadiene, isoprene or neoprene.

Corrosion Resistant
|
|
Materials are designed or suitable for service applications that require corrosion resistance.
|
| |
Heat Resistant
|
|
Materials are designed or suitable for service applications that require heat resistance.
|
| |
Hollow
|
|
Materials are supplied or available as tubes, pipes or hollow stock with an open internal bore.
|
| |
Wear Resistant (Bearing / Tool Grade)
|
|
Ball or sphere shapes use materials that are designed or suitable for service applications which require wear or erosion resistance. The balls are usually precision-ground for bearing or tooling applications. Material compositions are chosen or tailored to have high hardness, low sliding friction and high wear resistance. Bearing grade polymeric or plastic products often use high molecular weight polymers (UHMW PE, HDPE) and/or solid lubricant additives.
