Details
LFX (also known as Ertalon LFX) is a self-lubricating cast Nylon 6 which is especially developed for unlubricated, highly loaded and slowly moving parts applications.
In addition to this, LFX exhibits reduced coefficient of friction (up to 50% lower), considerably increasing the pressure-velocity capabilities, and a vastly improved wear resistance (up to 10 times better) than standard cast Nylons.
