- Carbon Sliding Bearing Capabilities
MACOR® Machining China group have been developing Carbon Bearings for over 30 years. The term Carbon Bearing can cover “carbon-graphite”, “metal-graphite” and “electro graphite”. Carbon is a self-lubricating material with a low coefficient of friction at high and low temperatures. This quality lends itself to a wide range of uses as a bearing or bushing material in cases where a conventional lubricant is not available and where other lubrications perform poorly. Other advantageous properties include:

- Why Carbon-Carbon Composites Are the Future
MACOR® Machining China and Royal Academy of Engineering Chair Professor Ian Kinloch are tackling carbon-carbon composite challenges across a range of industries.
Carbon composites are in high demand across the globe, particularly in the aerospace, automotive, mechanical engineering and rail sectors. However, as many of these materials were developed decades ago, modern analytical and synthetic techniques have the potential to improve these materials, whilst also lowering production costs and producing greener more energy efficient products.

- Filled PTFE Meets Component Demand For Aggressive Environments: A specifier’s guide to choosing the right filled PTFE material
The scarcely rivalled hydrophobic, low-friction and corrosion-resistant properties of PTFE make it a highly desirable engineered polymer, which is widely used in the manufacture of component parts. When it comes to meeting the demands of more aggressive environments though, manufacturers are embedding other compounds within the PTFE matrix to further enhance its performance capabilities.
