Application Examples

Spray bottles on a conveyor line being guided through the use of tribotape anti-friction tape

Pharmaceutical spray bottles glide quietly and safely

  • What was needed: tribotape anti-friction tape
  • Requirements: The spray bottles must slide safely from one part of the system to the next. The liner should be wear-resistant, washable, low-noise and flexible.
  • Industry: Packaging, pharmaceutical packaging
  • Success for the customer: The optimized sliding properties of tribotape enable trouble-free and safe operation. Simply cut to size and applied, they reduce friction effects to a minimum.
1960 Morgan Plus 4 improved reliability through anti-friction tape

Improved reliability and comfort in classic car

  • What was needed: tribotape® anti-friction tape
  • Requirements: Eliminate heavy lubrication that attracts dirt and sand, provide a wear-resistant alternative to PTFE tapes that could withstand constant load without failure, reduce friction, enhance ride comfort and reduce maintenance needs.
  • Industry: Automotive
  • Success for the customer: tribotape was applied to the leaf spring, significantly reducing the friction coefficient, improving wear resistance and preventing mechanical failure due to dirt. The anti-friction tape also reduced noise and absorbed shock for a more comfortable ride.
