EFOM-15 is a plastic sliding material made by Igus. It is an essential wear-resistant thermoplastic polymer material used to manufacture various parts and components in heavy-duty applications. The properties of EFOM-15 include high wear and abrasion resistance, excellent chemical resistance, low coefficient of friction, and the ability to withstand temperatures up to 120°C (248°F). It is also incredibly strong and will last up to 4 times longer than conventional thermoplastic materials. EFOM-15 is typically used in applications where there is a need for high performance, butweight or cost constraints do not allow for steel or other higher performing materials. Common applications for EFOM-15 include bushings, shafts, slides, and wear applications.
