ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
The basic ingredient of all Lo-Friction materials, except the soft Type #58, is nylon-plastic. Nylon has general characteristics of strength, toughness, and resiliency, plus abrasion and corrosion resistance. It also has a low coefficient of friction. Because of its high melting point, it is very good for operations requiring higher-than-normal heat resistance.
