HYDEX™ 4101 & 4101L (lubricated) is a very stable chemical compound that can withstand high impact without deterioration. It is approved for direct contact with food by the FDA and is ideal for machined parts in food processing equipment. HYDEX™ 4101 has excellent resistance to typical cleaning chemicals such as chlorine and caustic solutions and has a very low moisture absorption rate, as much as 15 times less than nylon.

TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION
 

Hydex^® 4101 is manufactured from PolyButylene Terephthalate polyester (PBT-P) resin. It is a semi-crystalline thermoplastic. This material is manufactured from Celanex^® resin.

GENERAL PROPERTIES
 

Hydex^® 4101 offers excellent mechanical properties combined with good chemical resistance. PBT-P has good impact resistance and toughness, low coefficient of friction & wear, and does not need lubrication. It also is resistant to chemicals, chlorine, water, and steam.

Hydex^® 4101 is available in FDA-approved white and non-FDA black colors.

Hydex^® 4101L is an internally-lubricated version designed for use in higher wear resistance, PV range and lower coefficient of friction applications.

Both Hydex^® 4101 and 4101L are approved for direct food contact (FDA, USDA, and 3A Dairy compliant).

KEY PROPERTIES
 

• No center line porosity • Superior chemical resistance • Low coefficient of friction • Good impact strength and ductility • Hard and durable surface • FDA, USDA, 3A Dairy approved grades • Replaces brass, aluminum, steel, UHMW, acetal

TYPICAL APPLICATIONS
 

• Food piston pumps • Valves and valve bodies • Feeder blocks • Timing screws • Gears • Cams • Bushings and bearings • Wear strips • Fuel pump components • Fuel system connectors and rotors

HYDEX® 4101 & 4101L (lubricated) exhibits a broad range of outstanding properties for a variety of applications, especially in the food processing industry. It is ideal for applications such as cams, bearings, gears, food pistons, wear strips, scraper blades, valve bodies and conveyor components.
