[Must-see for those who want to reduce material clogging] High heat resistance, low hardness guide parts N
Starlight Hightem (R)
Less likely to adhere than metal guides. Low-hardness FRP (fiber-reinforced plastic) makes it easy to remove adhered substances. Can also replace plated and white metal materials.
Our "High-Tem" product offers superior heat resistance compared to nylon and has a proven track record as a sliding product in numerous applications. It is also used in guides under high-temperature conditions. Compared to metal guides, it is less prone to sticking, contributing to improved raw material clogging and reduced maintenance frequency. Please consider it as a replacement for plated and white metal guides. <Features> - Suitable for high-temperature environments: Continuous use at 260°C - High strength and high rigidity - Excellent sliding properties and wear resistance even under high-temperature conditions <Available sizes for High-Tem> - Sheet: 200mm (thickness) × 980mm (width) × 10000mm (length: up to 10m) - Tubular (pipe): Outer diameter φ1700mm (up to 1.7m) × 980mm (length) You can watch a comparison video of heat resistance by scanning the QR code in the catalog.
