Material |
Features |
Used For |
| Polyester films (including Mylar®) | Exceptional dieletric strength, reliable durability at high temperatures | Used in a laminated form with traditional fiber or rubber components |
| Non-asbestos | Similar advantages of films, especially when bonded with nitrile rubber, graphite or other materials in laminates | Creep resistance, high torque retention and good anti-stick properties |
| Cellulose/rubber materials | A blend of cellulose fibers in a synthetic rubber binder | Ideal for light-to-medium duty applications that require a compressible material with excellent chemical resistance |
| Coated products | Made from a core material of vulcanized fiber, coated with nitrile (Buna N) rubber | Applications in need of superior surface sealing properties |
| Vulcanized fiber | Transforms traditional cellulose material into a dense, tough substance | Resisting abrasion and offers mechanical and dielecrical strength |
| Vegetable fiber | Low-cost material suitable for many general purposes. A variety of types are available that combine fiber and other binding materials (including glue-glycerine, cork and fungus-resistant additives) | Automotive applications due to its natural resistance to oils and fuels |
