We Represent " James Walker Devol   For over 40 years we have been able to pride ourselves in pioneering the design and development of advanced engineering thermoplastics. Devol has built a strong and enviable reputation as a leading innovator in its field and we believe that it is our proactive approach to problem solving which sets us apart from our competitors. Devol do not simply manufacture components to customer specification - working in tandem with clients, we will visit customer premises where we are able to identify and analyse areas in which we think our materials could offer performance improvements and cost savings. We are then able to offer unique solutions to engineering problems, combining technical expertise, project management and state of the art equipment to offer optimal solutions to difficult application problems.       Devlon Range   Devlon T100 (Black) (PDF) Characteristics - proprietary cast material which covers a wide range of applications - inherently stress free with excellent wear properties, low friction and improved impact strength - proven work horse in a wide range of applications and industries Typical applications bushes, crane sheaves, rollers/wheels, racks and pinions, boom wear pads, gaskets   .......................................................................................................................................................................   Devlon S Grade (Blue) (PDF) Characteristics - premium of all engineering grade thermoplastics - high molecular weight gives superior mechanical properties - optimum performance in rigorous and abrasive applications at ambient temperatures - particularly suited for larger sized components Typical applications bearings, rollers, pulleys, thrust plates, seal rings, gears   .......................................................................................................................................................................   Devlon V API (Yellow) (PDF) Characteristics - similar high performance levels as S grade, but has been specifically tailored for high temperature/pressure   applications - especially low moisture absorption improves dimensional stability - particularly suitable for offshore applications where weight saving, non-corrosive and impact wear   properties are imperative Typical applications valve seat inserts, clamps, bundle spacers, rollers, bearings   .......................................................................................................................................................................   Devlon A153 (Yellow) (PDF) Characteristics - specially formulated high viscosity Nylon 66 resulting in superior wear characteristics - improved impact strength and rigidity giving greater design reliability when strength, weight and size are    critical - significantly lower linear coefficient of thermal expansion than Nylon 66, therefore maintains dimensional tolerances and clearances more accurately in applications involving thermal cycling - maximum operating temperature of between 90°C and 120°C, compared to 85°C for Nylon 66 Typical applications journal bearings, thrust washers, bearing cages, rollers/wheels, piston seals, wear pads   .......................................................................................................................................................................   Devlube (Red) (PDF) Characteristics - self-lubricating material ideally suitable for dry running applications requiring low friction and where   lubrication is not possible - improved wear characteristics means excellent retention of physical properties - coefficient of friction of 0.04 - 0.08 makes Devlube ideal for wide range of applications Typical applications wear pads, cam followers, worm screws, bearing blocks, conveyor components, impellers     Top
