Aramid Fiber Compounds

[cover shot]
  • Minimize abrasion to counter/mating surfaces
  • Improve wear resistance
  • Reduce coefficient of friction

RTP Company offers a host of wear resistant thermoplastics that contain a variety of additives and reinforcements.

Aramid fiber is softer and less abrasive than glass or carbon. It's a major advantage in applications where the compound is paired with an abrasion-sensitive mating surface.

Aramid fiber compounds can be precolored to match adjoining parts, with color matches in 10 days or less.
