Etronax® P EP

Chemical Family: Epoxy & Epoxy Derivatives

Etronax® P EP is produced from a cotton base, thus obtaining outstanding mechanical properties, good durability and low friction. Etronax® P EP is also extremely suitable for machining, which makes it possible to produce just about any type of finished ready-to-install components using Etronax® P EP as the construction material.

HIGHLIGHTS: Etronax is available in a large number of different qualities, which means that you can always find a type of material that meets your requirements.. Certain types of Etronax have a self-lubricating effect, to mention just one of these qualities, and Etronax is generally characterized by being friction-reducing and extremely hard-wearing.
Reinforcement Form: Woven Fabric
Composite Materials Functions: Resins Binders & Matrix Materials
The Quality of Cotton Defines the Properties: The cotton quality not only affects the strength properties of the material but also other important mechanical properties such as friction. The finer the cotton, the less friction is caused by the material, which is of great importance about, for example, ball-bearing cages.
