Slide Bearing Plates: Teflon® Coated

Specifications

Standard Assembly
2 units of 3/32" Teflon® bonded to 1/8" carbon steel. For field tack welding. 1/4" lip. Loads to 2000 PSI, Temperature: -320.0 F to +500.0 F

Advantages

• Ease of installation.
• No setting problems.
• Low coefficient of friction
• No surface treatments, grouting, or expensive
  mechanical attachment necessary.
• Chemically inert.
• Unaffected by weather conditions.
• Ability to absorb dirt and grit within itself.
• Self-aligning when used in conjunction with
  elastomeric backing pads.
  

INSTALLATION 

Welding: 
When using a standard assembly merely tack weld with electric arc along the outside edge two inches on center with quarter-inch tack. If a full weld is desired, use full weld assembly. A full one-quarter inch weld is then used along the sides of the plates to the substrate, preventing seepage of water between the TEFLON® bearing and the support structure. Installation in Concrete- Secure the top and bottom elements together with paper adhesive tape. Then attach the bottom element anchor bolts with wire to the form. After the bottom pour is made, repeat on top element. During the first expansive cycle, the tape will break.

FULL WELD ASSEMBLY 2 units of 3/32" TEFLON® bonded to indicated backing material with 1/2" lip all around for full welding. Loads to 2000 PSI, Temperature: -320' F to +500' F
