Our products are designed to reduce friction

Most parts are made of high quality plastic, but Timco also supplies precision parts made of metal for steel mills and wire processing equipment. Timco also supplies very detailed engineering services, especially where the new part is made from a different material than the one it replaces.

Reduced Friction

Timco parts reduce friction in more than one way:

Use of suitable plastic with low coefficient of friction
Use of precision lubrication pumps to supply correct continuous lubrication without over lubrication
Use of roller bearings designed for free rotation over a very wide temperature range up to 900°C = 1650°F
Use of light weight engineering plastic to reduce component inertia to reduce wear.

What makes Timco engineering plastics stand out?

Low coefficient of friction
Good sliding features
Ability to withstand high impact load
Good corrosion resistance and chemical resistance
Low weight (Nylon is approximately 1/7 of Steel)
Favorable price/performance ratio
Reduction of noise and vibration = Wear reduction
