Guidelines for Selecting Cork Friction Material Manufacturer

by Crazzy Paul Digital Markting Professional
Cork is generally  just a barked layer of the cork oak tree. It is an impermeable buoyant substance that is acquired for commercial purposes in various industries. One of the properties of the cork is used by Cork Friction Material Manufacturer for increasing the friction of the surface as friction materials.

As the cork is impermeable and moisture resistance, it can harness special attributes of exceptional high coefficient of friction, for both dry and wet surfaces. There are various uses of Friction Material like in brakes, clutches, various stoppers both standard and customized. It is also used in paper feeders for Xerox and fax machines and many more.

Need for cork materials:

The most important properties of the cork material are as following. The first reason is lightweightness. As more than half is filled with air in the cell volume, it is the lightest solid material. It has great capability to withstand the pressure of a huge amount. According to some studies, it can withstand a pressure of 14000 lbs per square inch without breaking and able to retain its 90% of original form. It has great water resistance and liquid penetration properties. It has low thermal and high vibration absorbing ability. And the most important of all it has high frictional properties.

Uses of friction materials:

Because of its unique properties, cork has high frictional properties and has a high stability factor. The sole purpose of the Cork Friction Material is to generate friction between the surfaces of the machinery. They are applied in for making friction in systems like brake systems, clutch systems, transmissions, and certain household items. For industries like automotive, railroad, aircraft and aerospace, heavy machinery and defense are the areas where the extensive uses of these materials are used. These materials should have high coefficient of friction; they must be resistant to wear effects; must have high heat friction value; must be resistant to the environment and must have good shear strength to transfer frictional forces.

Uses of Friction Material:

Cork Friction Material can perform very well in dry and wet surfaces because of their properties. They operate in various machines like printer drives to heavy duty machinery like road graders and tractors. These materials have great natural properties which provide outstanding resilience and flexibility over a wide range of heat temperature. They are resistant to shear strength, stress, and strain. Corks are conformable, provide an excellent sealing when it is required, and have high resistance to fatigue.

Different offers by the makers:

There are many services offered by Cork Friction Material Manufacturer, Supplier and Exporter in India for cork based friction materials. These companies have a wide range of friction materials that are supplied to various industries for a different range. One must be very careful about the specification for friction material for the specific machinery and the standard one has to keep for the machinery.

They provide the materials in accordance with the specification by the clients and their needs. They maintain the standard for client if necessary or if there is none they have their own standards to maintain in the products.
