AUTOMOTIVE/OFF-HIGHWAY

In vehicle locations including the transmission, engine, and electric motors, injection molded AURUM components replace metals in extreme heat and high PV applications for longer component life, reduced weight, and higher performance levels.

In automotive and off-highway vehicle applications, AURUM is increasingly specified by designers for its:

Excellent tribological performance,high strength and impact resistance at temperatures to 550°F
Outstanding creep resistance
A low coefficient of friction
High PV capability
Resistance to chemicals and automotive fluids
Sealing compliance
A low coefficient of thermal expansion
