Why choose Morgan resin bonded Graphite?
Resin-bonded carbon graphite is a specialised material consisting largely of resin with carbon-graphite fillers which is injection moulded allowing complex geometries to be formed.
Resin-bonded carbon graphite is hot pressed and does not require a coking step, therefore making it more suitable to low durability applications, with low wear and temperature requirements. The primary properties of resin bonded graphite are:
- Chemically inert
- Approved for food and beverage contacting applications
- Temperatures of up to 200°C
- Self-lubricating
- Mechanically strong
- Good sliding characteristics
Morgan resin bonded Graphite applications
Typical resin bonded graphite applications include:
- Mechanical seal components for a wide variety of sealing applications
- Axial bearings operating in immersed fluids such as petrol, paraffin, kerosene and water
- Radial bearings
- Rotors and vanes
- Wet or dry running applications
For applications requiring complex shapes produced in high volume, we are the industry leaders in the production of resin-bonded graphite seal and bearing components.
