Further Information about Oilon Sheets
Oilon sheet is green cast nylon 6. It has been blended with a non-leech or drying out liquid lubricant. This increases sliding benefits and bearing life up to 5 times. Therefore Oilon sheet is exceptional where bearing lubrication is an issue.
Manufacturers produce engineering plastics that are slightly oversize in either diameter and/or thickness. This oversize tolerance, which is listed in the tables below, is provided to assist customers to produce very accurate items within the size shown and remove any minor surface imperfection.
