Technical information
Technical Details
The MacGregor Polypad has a good loadbearing capacity. It is a long-life bearing pad
with a low risk of damage and a predictable
wear-down rate. The Polypad’s self-lubricating polymer slides against a stainless
steel mating plate creating a low-friction
bearing pad system. Constant sliding properties remain over the pad’s lifetime, and
easy replacement eliminates the need for
expensive and time-consuming repairs.
• Smooth and silent
• Available in several
sliding action
standard designs
and sizes

• Self-lubricating
• Easy replacement/
