What’s more, using lubricants to protect a component from wear is a two-step process, because the part must first be manufactured, then coated with oil or grease, adding cost to the manufacturing process. Beyond improved surface appearance, protection from friction, and reduced wear, these polymers also offer the design freedom and part consolidation potential of thermoplastics. Here are the some of the top automotive applications that can benefit from making the switch:
