WC/C
Self-lubricating
WC/C is recommended to deal with cold welding phenomena as it improves the sliding of the sheet metal in the contact area. In the plastics and rubber molding, WC/C is used to deal with gluing and abrasion phenomena. WC/C can be used in conjunction with a hard coating or on its own.
Main characteristics
Very low friction coefficient
Main benefits
Self-lubricating, it favors the sliding and unscrewing of the moving parts of components and moulds.
