Extended Vesconite Hilube Size Range

Some months back we mailed you a brochure about Vesconite Hilube, a bearing material with remarkably low static friction and very long wear life, even in applications that are unlubricated or unusually dirty. Examples of where Vesconite Hilube solved critical problems range from cement plants to pumps.

Many customers made enquiries. Due to the limited range of sizes available last year, many felt it was not worthwhile to take a size with a much greater wall thickness than they would use in Vesconite.

We noted these enquiries and decided to make a substantial investment in production facilities and stock by increasing the Vesconite Hilube range.

We have introduced 45 new sizes. We believe that more than 90% of enquiries will be met by the new extended range. It includes

  • New rod sizes
  • Many new bushing sizes so as to include all the popular sizes, and
  • A new plate size

Attached please find the new stock list for Vesconite Hilube. If you made an enquiry previously, take this opportunity to see if there is a suitable size closer to the size you need.

We will also consider producing sizes to meet specific requirements for customers with a minimum order of more than R5000 for an individual size.

To learn more about Vesconite Hilube, please call Ron Leistra and Ian Moffett in Johannesburg (616-1111) or Friedel Brumloop and Belinda Coetzee in Virginia (057-212-0000).

Or visit our web site www.vesconite.com or e-mail us at vesconite@vesconite.com. We look forward to hearing from you.
