UTECRESIN is synthetic, woven polyester fiber fabric, impregnated with a specially modified phenolic resin and friction optimized with PTFE, which makes it an ideal material for guide elements. It has high bearing strength, good sliding properties and maximum resistances, particularly for absorbing extremely high lateral forces in hydraulic cylinders with lateral stresses. It can be used for the applications in hydraulic cylinder production, mining, construction machinery industry and mechanical engineering.
