ACF-10Q Graphite

Download Image

ACF-10Q graphite is our 5 micron, high-hardness material minimizes fretting wear and maximizes time between overhauls. It is ideally suited for industrial applications that expose the material to mechanical wear.

Average particle size of less than 5 microns provides high strength and resistance to damage
Optimal balance of machinability for fine details and high hardness resists damage during production runs
High resistance to wear minimizes replacement needs and reduces cost of ownership
Ability to be post processed to enhance a multitude of material properties to fit your applications

Our graphite grades are available as semi-finished rods, blocks, plates, and fully machined parts.
