Mechanical carbon

Taking advantage of the self-lubrication and chemical and heat resistance features of carbon, mechanical carbon is used for sliding parts in high temperature environments where metals cannot be used as well as for submersion in chemicals and in fields where lubricated parts cannot be used. Already, our KC, TUG and IG Series are widely used and highly evaluated in a broad range of industries.
Our copper-impregnated carbon materials for a pantograph slider are extending the life of wiring.
Characteristics of Mechanical carbon

Carbon for mechanical applications

Bearing

Because of their self-lubricating property, heat resistance and chemical resistance, carbon bearings are a great choice for oilless applications that must guard against oil infiltration.

Carbon for mechanical applications

Seal ring

Mechanical parts used to prevent leakage of fluid around a rotary shaft or a reciprocating shaft in a fluid handling equipment or to prevent the fluid flowing inside from mixing with the fluid outside the tubes in pressure vessels.

Carbon for mechanical applications

Packing

Toyo Tanso's packing is mainly used with oilless compressors and turbines. It has good self-lubricating property and causes little damage to counter material. Toyo Tanso can provide packing also for various types of fluid mediums.

Carbon for mechanical applications

Vane

Carbon vanes excel over metal vanes in wear and chemical resistance, and additionally enable high speed rotation because of the self-lubricating property of carbon. Toyo Tanso makes vanes for vacuum pumps and compressors.

Carbon for mechanical applications

Pantograph Slider

Pantograph sliders are indispensable parts for electric train in their collectors on top of pantographs.
Carbon sliders lessen the damage to overhead power lines caused by conventional metal materials, and have good conduction properties.
