SLIDING RIDER RINGS / STRUCTURAL PADS
Low-friction wear pads and support elements for sliding and structural support applications.
Structural supports
F10PTFE components are one of the most important parts in structural pads. In fact, this material guarantees the perfect positioning of the various elements and ensures structural equilibrium with respect to the normal thermal or dynamic shocks to which these elements may be subjected. Thanks to its low coefficient of friction, mechanical resistance, ability to operate in harsh environmental and atmospheric conditions, insensitivity to chemical substances and high elasticity, it is particularly suitable for use as structural pads and sliding rider rings in railway lines, pipelines, road bridges and viaducts, offshore structures, etc.
F10PTFE sliding rider rings
With regard to bridge supports using F10PTFE pads, Fluorten has for some time independently adopted the EN 1337-2 standard (issued by the MPA University of Stuttgart) already in force in Europe, adapting the production of F10PTFE sheets to the requirements, which include a “long duration” test – wear resistance over 10 km – for the purpose of certifications issued on request.
Solutions for the most demanding industries
Fluorten develops custom-engineered technical components for applications where reliability, precision, and performance are essential requirements.
