High performance material LubX® C features outstanding dry-running properties. Specifically developed for applications in the food conveying and material handling industries, the product is especially aligned to Acetal and steel.
Compared to conventional sliding materials, conveying systems equipped with LubX® C use considerably less energy.
The considerably lower coefficient of friction of LubX® C eliminates the possibility of the slip-stick effect (backsliding) almost completely and thus increases process stability.

Special properties
Energy saving
Especially aligned to Acetal (POM) and steel (e.g. chain conveyors)
Coefficient of friction with Acetal as sliding partner up to 75% less than of UHMW-PE. The tests were carried out in the company's own materials lab on a tribology test apparatus developed in cooperation with scientists.
Coefficient of friction with steel as sliding partner up to 60% less than of UHMW-PE. The tests were carried out in the company's own materials lab on a tribology test apparatus developed in cooperation with scientists.
