Turcite® B is the traditional bearing material used on machine tool ways, transfer lines or any linear movement application in which reduced friction and wear resistance are critical design considerations. Turcite® B Slydway increases accuracy, reduces damage caused by mechanical breakdowns and lubrication failures, extends the useful life of mechanical components, saves energy and improves stick-slip performance.

Waylock II – Quart – Stock
Waylock® II
Trelleborg sealing solutions has specifically developed an effective bearing element between sliding metal surfaces. They are used in linear bearing applications. When used together, Waylock® II and Turcite® B, will provide an extremely reliable linear bearing surface, lower friction, and low wear between sliding metal surfaces.
In the kit:
1 Resin
1 Hardener
1 Serrated scraper
Instructions

Turcite® B Slydway® Advantages:
Extruded Billet Process – reduces internal stresses and allows Turcite Slydway to lie flat for easier handling
Superior Etched Surface – promotes easier, more reliable installation with superior adhesion
Excellent Vibration Dampening – dampens cutting tool vibration from migrating throughout the machine tool
Increased Positional Accuracy – lower friction increases positional accuracy and repeatability on linear ways
Chemical Resistance – resists aggressive coolants and lubricants
High Water Resistance – will not absorb moisture
Low Friction in the Event of Dry Operation – protects mechanical components in cases of poor or failed lubrication
Turcite® B comes in 12″ and 24″ Wide Rolls or we will custom cut to your specifications.
Turcite® B Slydway® System is a complete line of bearing materials along with surface preparation and adhesive products specifically engineered to install Turcite® B Slydway® materials.
We also offer complete line of accessories for applying and maintaining Turcite® B Slydway®.
Deoiling Powder 500 grams – Deoiling Powder extracts oils, grease, lubricants and other fluids by means of its hygroscopic properties. The surface should be cleaned and dried prior to its application. Powder is light blue when applied and will turn dark blue within one hour in the presence of oil. If the powder surface becomes wet (dark blue) remove and repeat application. Clean surface thoroughly after use.
