![Norplex BR60 Bearing Laminate]( "Norplex BR60 Bearing Laminate")
Norplex BR60 Bearing Laminate
BR60 consists of multiple plies of heavy-weight canvas cloth saturated with phenolic resin system, modified with molybdenum disulfide, which provides internal lubrication to reduce frictional heat generation and wear of metal shafts on the bearing. The pre-preg (b-stage) plies are then laminated under heat and pressure to produce a thermoset composite material. BR60 laminates offer load-bearing capacities equivalent to those of brass and bronze, but will not seize to metal shafts, speeding up bearing replacement and reducing equipment downtime. Compared to thermoplastics, BR60 provides superior load-bearing properties and has a Coefficient of Thermal Expansion that more closely matches the CTE of metal shafts. BR60 is used to make water-cooled propeller stave bearings on ships. In addition, steel and aluminum rolling mills prefer BR60 bearings because they last longer than metal and thermoplastic bearings in many applications and can be replaced quickly during overhauls.

Norplex Micarta Product Info
Norplex-Micarta is the leading manufacturer of high performance thermoset composite laminates. We work directly with customers to manufacture the highest quality specialty sheet products, pre-pregs, rods and molded shapes, and tubes available for our OEMs and fabricators around the world.
This cost-effective line of products consists of multiple plies of various papers impregnated with phenolic resins and laminated under heat and pressure to produce a thermoset composite. Both papers and resins can be modified to change the finished properties of the final laminate. These products offer thermal, mechanical isolation, and thermal and electrical insulation properties that meet or exceed those of most thermoplastic materials. The properties and cost-effectiveness of these products often make them the insulators of choice in low-voltage, dry-service electrical equipment.
These products consist of phenolic resin systems combined with several weights of cotton fabrics, from less than four ounces per square yard (commonly called "linen") to 6, 8, 10, and 25 ounces per square yard, used in bearing grades for ships. These products are easy to machine and operate with less noise than metal in numerous gear and bearing-type applications. In addition, they do not spark when struck, so they can be used in explosion-proof environments. These structural and electrical insulation materials are also less abrasive than fiberglass options in wear applications. Phenolic/canvas composites can be used to make a variety of parts, including gears, pulleys, rollers, and guides. In the phenolic/linen product line, grades include bleached linen to enhance moisture resistance, electrical insulation, and other properties. The resin systems can be modified in various ways to suit requirements, including the addition of lubricants that reduce wear. Phenolic/linen products offer a lower coefficient of thermal expansion than thermoplastic materials, as well as more strength and heat resistance than all but the most expensive thermoplastics.
Applications include small gears, pulleys, rollers, guides, and other parts that are more intricate than those made with canvas grades.
Bearing grade laminates consist of multiple plies of a very heavy weight canvas cloth impregnated with phenolic resin and laminated under heat and pressure to produce a thermoset (non-melting) material. Canvas weights and resin formulations can be changed to modify the finished properties of the composite laminate. The load-bearing properties of these laminates are better than those of high-performance thermoplastics and roughly match those of brass and bronze. But unlike these metal options, these high performance thermoset composites will not seize to metal shafts or score them, speeding up bearing replacement and reducing equipment downtime and cost of replacement. With some of the highest load capacities of any bearing material, the composites are specifically designed for heavy load-bearing applications in ships, metal-rolling mills, and off-road construction equipment.
Consisting of electrical-grade epoxy resin systems combined with a variety of glass fabric substrates, these products come in low- and high-temperature versions. Low-temperature epoxy/glass materials offer good chemical resistance and electrical properties under dry and humid conditions. Some systems are flame retardant and meet the Underwriters Laboratories Flammability Class, V-0. They also feature high flexural, impact, and bond strength at temperatures up to 130°C. These materials are suitable for a variety of structural, electronic, and electrical applications.
High-temperature epoxy/glass products offer superior mechanical strength and insulative properties over a wider temperature range. These products feature high mechanical strength at continuous operating temperatures up to 180°C in mechanical applications. In response to customer requests, Norplex-Micarta can change the resins to enable products to withstand even higher continuous operating temperatures. Several standard grades can handle temperatures much higher than 180°C for short periods of time. At elevated temperatures, the products retain 50 percent of their flexural strength. Several types meet NEMA G-11 requirements, and the materials can also be produced on any glass style for applications that do not require NEMA G-11. Applications include solder pallets, corona dissipation, rotor slot insulation, and structural applications at elevated temperatures.

![Frac Balls - Fracturing Balls]( "Frac Balls - Fracturing Balls")
Frac Balls - Fracturing Balls
Exploiting tight gas reservoirs requires the ability to fracture wells according to production requirements. Most require multiple transverse fractures at specific locations within the horizontal well. In order to maximize productivity, the creation of multiple fractures is of critical importance.
One popular method for creating fractures is the use of frac ports & sliding sleeves. Openhole packers isolate different sections of the horizontal well. A sliding sleeve is placed between each packer pair and is opened by injecting a ball inside the borehole. Typically, a compleiton string is placed inside the well. The string include frac ports and open hole packers spaced to specifications. The spacing between packaers may be up to several hundred feet. The packers are actuated by mechanical, hydraulic or chemical mechanisms. In order to activate each sleeve, a properly sized ball is pumped along with a fracturing fluid inside the well. Each ball is smaller than the opening of all of the previous sleeves, but larger than the sleeve it is intended to open. Seating of the ball exerts pressure at the end of the sliding sleeve assembly, causing it to slide and open the frac ports. Once the port is opened, the fluid is diverted into the openhole space outside of the completion assembly, casuing the formation to fracture.
At the completion of each fracturing stage, the next larger ball is injected into the well, which open the next sleeve, and so on, until all of the sleeves are opened and multiple fractures are created in the well. The main advantage of this completion technique is the speed of operation which also reduces costs.
Typically, ball sizes are staged in .500" or .250" increments. It is improtant to understand that this process is not without risk of failure and should only be undertaken after considerable research and consideration.
Frac plugs are designed to seal from above the plug only. Each plug uses a plastic fracturing ball that seals on top of the mandrel. The fracturing ball is free to float off the mandrel with pressure or flow from below the plug. This allows immediate flowback of all zones following treatment.
