Within the family of TIVAR® materials optimised for sliding applications, TIVAR® DRYSLIDE has the lowest sliding friction coefficient.

TIVAR® DRYSLIDE is a PE-UHMW material characterised by self-lubricating properties thanks to an integrated lubricant.
This solution results in an extremely low sliding friction coefficient, irrespective of the stress exercised.

TIVAR® DRYSLIDE also has an antistatic function.

Specifications: Self-lubricating; Antistatic; Extremely low sliding friction coefficient; Very good noise absorption; Very good abrasion resistance; Long-lasting; Satisfactory resistance to chemicals; Highly resistant to UV radiation; No humidity absorption;

Examples of applications: curved rails; rails with belt transmission and chain-driven rails; parcel chutes; sliding and drive elements.
