Rulon® 1337 is a tan material made entirely from FDA and USDA compliant components. It has excellent physical properties and is chemically compatible with most chemicals, except concentrated sulfuric acid. This offers much flexibility in wash-down environments of food and pharmaceutical processing environments.
It has slightly lower coefficient of friction than Rulon® J, offering extended life and less abrasion with softer mating surfaces.
It is compatible with most commercially available natural lubricants for additional reduction in friction.
In addition to the more tailor-made solutions offerings, for example the Omniseal Solutions piston rings, typical offerings of Rulon® include automatically molded bearings and components, sleeve, flanged and thrust bearings, stamped and formed seals, extruded shapes, machined parts, and molded shapes.
Applications include pumps, mixers, compressors, appliances, chute liners, insulators, linear slides, shaft bearings, seals, and wear bands. This material can be used in a variety of different environments, including wet, dry and vacuum.
