Duratron® T4301 (EXTRUSION)

Duratron® T4301 extruded PAI is primarily used for wear and friction parts. It offers a very low expansion rate, low coefficient of friction and exhibits little or no slip-stick in use. Duratron® T4301's flexural modulus of 1,000,000 psi is higher than most other advanced engineering plastics. This grade excels in severe service wear applications such as non-lubricated bearings, seals, bearing cages and reciprocating compressor parts.

Duratron® PAI is the highest performing melt processable plastic. It has superior resistance to elevated temperatures. It is capable of performing under severe stress conditions at continuous temperatures to 500°F (260°C). Parts machined from Duratron® PAI stock shapes provide greater compressive strength and higher impact resistance than most advanced engineering plastics. Its extremely low coefficient of linear thermal expansion and high creep resistance deliver excellent dimensional stability over its entire use range. Duratron® PAI is an amorphous material with a Tg (glass transition
temperature) of 537°F (280°C).

Quadrant EPP's extruded Duratron® stock shapes are post-cured using the latest technology and procedures developed jointly by Amoco Performance Products and Quadrant EPP eliminating the need for additional curing by the end user in most situations. A post-curing cycle is recommended for components fabricated from extruded shapes where optimization of chemical resistance and/or wear performance is required.
