AR®HT

AR®HT is a proprietary thermoplastic material specifically developed for use as bushings, bearings and wear rings in pumps handling abrasive media up to 250°F (120°C). AR®HT provides outstanding chemical, thermal shock and impact resistance, making it a better wear material than traditional rubber, ceramic or bronze materials. Greene Tweed’s proprietary AR® thermoplastic materials exhibit outstanding wear characteristics in media containing solids. AR® combines excellent abrasive resistance, good dry run capability and superior vibration dampening characteristics with no hydrolysis or swell. AR®HT works well in a variety of abrasive pump applications including those working with circulating water, open and closed cooling water, river water, screen wash and crude oil pumps. When using AR®HT pump users can operate their equipment with much tighter clearances, boosting efficiency and improving process reliability. AR®HT is API 610 approved for stationary wear applications.
