Application Examples

Sheaves & Sheave segments

Installation & retrieval of equipment from subsea environments leads to high demands placed on the metallic or synthetic cables. To help mitigate this, switch from metallic sheaves to Sustamid® 6G, as our range of Sustamid® materials can lead to an increase in the life of your cables. This is due to the low coefficients of friction and excellent wear resistance of Sustamid® materials, further enhanced by the excellent impact resistance, and significant weight reduction compared to steel (approximately 1/7th the weight). Materials available include grades suitable for ATEX environments as well as self-lubricating formulations.

Labyrinth seals

Labyrinth seals of Sustamid® 6G for the rotor bearing are resilient against lubricants, provide high dimensions stability and thus permit reliable minimisation of the lubrication loss in the long term.

Diablo rollers

During offshore pipe installation, metallic diablo rollers can lead to potential damage to the corrosion resistant coatings of pipelines. To help mitigate this, switch from metallic diablo rollers to Sustamid® 6G with the increased ductility of the engineering plastic limiting potential pipeline damage. Sustamid® 6G has additional benefits including a low coefficient of friction and excellent wear resistance as well as excellent impact resistance. Whilst also offering significant weight advantages compared to steel (approx. 1/7th the weight). Materials suitable for ATEX environments as well as self-lubricating forumalations are also possible.
