AUSSIE AGRICULTURAL
EQUIPMENT MANUFACTURER USES VESCONITE HILUBE
An Australian agricultural equipment manufacturer has switched from oil-impregnated
nylon bushings to Vesconite Hilube polymer types on the hydraulic tynes that it
manufactures for seeding machines.
The Vesconite Hilube polymer is valued by farmers and agricultural equipment
manufacturers for being a self-lubricating, wear resistant polymer, which is widely used
in tough agricultural applications characterised by grit, mud and water.
With seeder tynes being the teeth that cut through the soil during seeding, their
exposure to harsh wear conditions is significant.
Speaking about the introduction of Vesconite Hilube bushings to his tynes, OptiAg
Systems director Peter Hills says. “I believe it to be a superior product to the oilimpregnated
nylon we have been using. As grain growers ourselves, we are looking for
the best product for use. We want to provide our clients with the best possible product
as well.”
