Properties

What sets Sampo BMX apart.

Sampo BMX combines high mechanical stability with very good hydrolysis resistance and, through targeted modifications, offers additional performance potential for demanding technical applications.

Outstanding resistance to hydrolysis and thermal ageing

Mechanically stable over the long term

Improved long-term dimensional stability

Fields of application

Where Sampo BMX is used.

Sampo BMX is highly versatile: low abrasion and high temperature resistance allow its use as seals, rollers or wear strips, and make it a good choice for long-lasting insulation, including in humid environments.

Static and lightly dynamically loaded sealing elements

Components exposed to hot water or humid environments

Precision parts with dimensional accuracy requirements
