CIP Hydro™

CIP Hydro is manufactured with polyester and PTFE combined textile along with high performance polyester resin and solid lubricants evenly dispersed lubrication throughout the material eliminating the need for additional external lubricants. Proprietary additives are included to increase the overall strength and reduce friction and wear.

Tested by Powertech Labs.

CIP Marine™

CIP Marine is manufactured with polyester textile and a high performance polyester resin with solid lubricants PTFE and molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) evenly dispersed throughout the resin. Typically used as propeller shaft and rudder bushings. CIP Marine is a proprietary material specifically developed for marine environments. This combination of resin reinforced with textile creates a dimensionally stable material ideal for replacing bronze in marine environments.

CIP131

A very cost effective material commonly used for wear ring, stable in hydraulic fluids, and nonabrasive to mating surfaces. 100% polyester material (textile and resin) with PTFE evenly dispersed throughout the resin system. Material is recognized as safe with indirect contact with food – FDA: Title 21 parts 107-199. This material can easily be dyed, however, may require an up charge and a minimum order must be met. NOTE: the color may vary slightly from run to run.
