ThorPlas (blue) is a non-elastomeric,engineered thermoplastic.

Maximum dynamic working pressure to 31.0Mpa(4500psi);static pressure to 45.0Mpa(6500psi); 

Low coefficient of friction (typically 0.10~0.17);

Very low wear in non-abrasive environment; 

Maximum continuous service temperature of 80℃ in water and 110℃ dry 

Excellent dry start capability as a vertical pump bearing; 

Reasonable abrasion resistance better than bronze, epoxy phenolics and many other non-metallic bearing materials;

Improved chemical resistance in most chemical product categories compared to elastomeric grades;
