Product Spotlight: Mechanical Application of Fluorogold Slide Plates

Fluorogold Slide Plates are known around the world as the first choice for structural applications requiring a low-friction load-bearing connection.  We often work with engineers on both small and large-scale mechanical projects that need low-friction support as well.  The part shown below is one element of a Fluorogold Slide Plate assembly used in a Ship Loader’s Pivot Bearing.  This assembly measured 55” x 55” and could support up to 5 million pounds of vertical load. This large and odd-shaped part is just one example of how our Fluorogold Slide Plates can be put to use on a mechanical project.
