April 14, 2006 -
While Rulon 1337 exhibits wear-resistance against lower hardness mating surfaces, and RulonŽ 1439 exhibits wear-resistance in submerged applications, both have coefficient of friction suitable for use with stainless steel and are available in standard or custom sizes. Able to retain critical properties over -400 to +550°F temperature range for continuous operation, materials have self-lubricating design and provide maintenance-free service.
