What Makes INDRON® TSTN Different?
INDRON® TSTN is a next-generation elastoplastic bearing material, developed with:
●Long-life self-lubricating particles
●Extreme-pressure resistance
●Balanced low friction and durability
●Minimal volumetric wear in wet and dry conditions
This formulation makes it ideal for rudder bearings subjected to high-impact steering loads and corrosive seawater environments.
