BEARING TYPE:

Table slides utilizing MicroPoly plugs

CONDITIONS:

The lubricity of the polymer slide material was lost due to the coolant exposure. This caused the coefficient of friction to increase and excessive force was required to move the table slide.

RESULTS:

The incorporation of the MicroPoly plugs permitted sufficient lubrication to reduce the coefficient of friction to a low level. The slide can now be moved easily by hand.
