ASFW composite bearings have two layers that are manufactured by a filament winding process. The bearing layer is composed of a proprietary designed woven structure of PTFE and high-strength synthetic fibres with specially formulated solid lubricant additions. These PTFE fibres and solid lubricants are the primary mechanisms for allowing the ASFW product to operate in a self-lubricating condition. The material is extremely tough and can withstand high radial and axial surface pressure. ASFW has good wear resistance and is suitable for operating under dry, wet, and lubricated circumstances. ASFW has a low coefficient of friction, can withstand edge loading, and has virtually no swell in water. ASEC Products recommends providing the counter faces with a hardened surface to protect them from wear. ASFW is produced under the approval of ISO 9001 for all manufacturing operations and tested in laboratories.
