Hi,
I’m Yanagi in Overseas Department.
It's getting warmer and warmer in Yokohama, no doubt summer is in the air.

Well, recently in Overseas Department, I had the opportunity to present Dymco's
Friction Pad, so I would like to introduce its features and uses of the
friction pad.
Firstly, the stainless-steel base of a friction pad is coated by heated and
molten super-hard metal particles, thereby roughening the
surface and increasing the friction coefficient.
In
a way, it’s a metal version of sandpaper. Moreover, it can be processed on both
sides.
For
these reasons, the friction pads are mainly used as parts for fastening or slip
prevention, in which metal is in contact with each other and is required to
have high surface pressure and high friction coefficient.
The
figures below may help you easy to understand the principle.
1.
Non-slip on the surface to be chucked
2.
High friction pulley
By
inserting a thin high-friction friction pad into the chucking section etc. in
this way, the stability and fastening power increase.
As
a result, it is possible to reduce the size of the fastening bolt diameter or
the number of fastening bolts.
The
thickness can be manufactured from 0.2 mm or more.
It can also be used as end portion of small robot arm. It is used to catch the object tightly.

And
it is also possible to manufacture the shape for customer’s needs or process to
customer supplied parts.
If
you are considering using the friction pad and any questions of the shape of
your highly frictional parts, or cost reduction of fastening parts, please don’t
hesitate to contact us.
