Advantages of Carbon Graphite Components
Self Lubricating
One of the biggest advantages of using carbon graphite is its ability to self-lubricate, which eliminates the need for oils or greases that may fail in demanding environments.
Compatible With Food and Pharmaceuticals
Carbon graphite is safe for direct or indirect contact with food, beverages, and pharmaceutical products, so carbon graphite components are widely used in industries where contamination must be avoided.
Low Coefficient of Friction & Extremely Low Wear Rate
The low coefficient of friction leads to a low wear rate, extending maintenance intervals and service life and decreasing unplanned maintenance for carbon graphite vanes, rotors, bushings, seals & more.
Low Coefficient of Thermal Expansion and Excellent Thermal Conductivity
Carbon graphite components are dimensionally stable due to their low coefficient of thermal expansion, and heat dissipates effectively because of their good thermal conductivity.
Resistance to Chemicals, Corrosion, and Oxidation
Carbon graphite components maintain performance in aggressive media and harsh industrial environments.
Excellent Thermal Shock And Superior Mechanical Strength
Carbon graphite components are durable, providing mechanical strength and resilience to rapid temperature changes.
High Temperature Resistance
Carbon graphite components can function in high temperatures where traditional components would quickly degrade, offering both performance and durability.
