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.

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.
