Carbeon-LWRLong-term Wear Resistant
Carbeon-LWR transforms its ultra-high temperature resistance capability into long-term wear and abrasion resistant components. An extremely low specific wear paired with tailored co-efficient of friction for braking and sliding elements enhances the tribology competence of a system. The added benefit of low density provides ease of control for fast moving or accelerated components.
