LiNNOTAMGLiDE is a high crystalline modification of LiNNOTAM, manufactured in the monomer casting process which, through the addition of oil and stabilisers, is specially designed for sliding applications. Contrary to the standard quality LiNNOTAM, LiNNOTAMGLiDE features a good combination of properties.

What advantages offers LiNNOTAMGLiDE

Excellent sliding properties

make LiNNOTAMGLiDE a special friction bearing material for highly loaded slide and wear parts in machines and equipment. Due to the lubrication and additives in the material, a sustainable lubricating effect is achieved given for the whole life cycle. Compared to the standard quality, a 50 % reduction in friction is achieved, thus producing less frictional heat and considerably higher peak load capacity. Also the undesirable stick-slip tendency is reduced.

Extraordinary wear resistance

is achieved by the fine crystal microstructure of LiNNOTAMGLiDE generated by the additives. Compared with standard quality, the reduced frictional heat as well as the reduced friction coefficient makes application possible at higher speeds and surface pressures. This applies not only for dry running but also for running under emergency conditions.

Lower moisture absorption and dimensional stability

are the result of LiNNOTAMGLiDE the high crystalline molecular structure and the special additives. The low moisture absorption leads better dimensional stability and less of a reduction in the mechanical values due to moisture.

Food Grade

LiNNOTAMGLiDE also meets the requirements of EU Regulation Nr. 10/2011 as well as the FDA requirement 21 DFR § 177.1500 and can be used in the production of components which come into direct contact with food.

LiNNOTAMGLiDE is available in further variations

  • LiNNOTAMGLiDE Pro T : Is a monomer cast polyamide based on LiNNOTAM and contains a solid lubricant additive making it particularly suitable for sliding applications. It supplements the product line of bearing materials and stands for high wear resistance and long service life.
