DuPont Vespel ®<strong>Glass</strong> <strong>Handling</strong> <strong>Technology</strong>INNOVATION FOR THE GLASS INDUSTRY
Stacker Bar InsertsSweep-out FingersTake-out InsertsApplications in <strong>Glass</strong> Bottle PlantsTechnical SupportDuPont Vespel ® has over 40 years ofproviding material science solutions for themost demanding high temperature and wearapplications. Our team of expert engineersoffers individual technical support <strong>to</strong> optimizethe material selection and design.Products and ApplicationsDuPont Vespel ® <strong>Glass</strong> <strong>Handling</strong><strong>Technology</strong> consists of two materialofferings: Vespel ® SP-22 and Vespel ®SCP-5050 which are available in cus<strong>to</strong>mfinished parts, semi-finished blanks andplaque.DuPont Vespel ® SP-22 components are anexcellent option for short and medium runsat low/medium speeds that require morespecialized handling <strong>to</strong> minimize defects.This product has been used for more than20 years by plants around the world in glasscontainer production with excellent results.DuPont Vespel ® SCP-5050 components,a new product innovation, are the optimalchoice for either long runs at high speedsor heavier containers that require maximumlife of contact parts with minimum operationdisruption.Dead PlatesTypical Vespel ® applications are:• TAKE-OUT INSERTS• SWEEP-OUT FINGERS• STACKER and TRANSFER PADS• GUIDES and DEAD PLATESProperty ComparisonPropertyTypical PropertiesUnits SP-22 SCP-5050Carbon GraphiteStandard <strong>Glass</strong> <strong>Handling</strong> GradeIzod Impact (Notched heat aged at 315°C[600°F]/100 hr) ASTM D-256J/m (ft-lb/in) 28 (0.5) 33 (0.6) 17 (0.3)Oil Absorption (24 hr soak) % wt chg 0.12 0.02 5.7Wear (oscillating at 315°C [600°F]/25 hr) % wt loss 1.53 0.96 3.1Thermal Conductivity at 50°C (122°F) W/mK (BTU-in/hr-ft 2 -°F) 1 (7) 2 (11) 80 (550)Vespel ® SP-22 and Vespel ® SCP-5050 properties are averages of direct formed and machined shapes product offering.
Design RecommendationsDuPont Vespel ® components can be machined with regular <strong>to</strong>ols used <strong>to</strong> machine carbongraphite and metal. (for the Vespel ® machining guide please go <strong>to</strong> www.vespel.com).Design CharacteristicsDuPont Vespel ® components have higher CTE(Coefficient of Thermal Expansion) versus carbongraphite components. In some cases, it may bebeneficial <strong>to</strong> use slightly higher <strong>to</strong>lerances thanthose used with carbon graphite. Refer <strong>to</strong> tablesabove regarding CTE and typical thermal expansionproperties <strong>to</strong> assist in design considerations.Contact DuPont for additional technical support.Europe/Middle East/AfricaDu Pont de Nemours (Belgium) BVBATel: +32 15 44 1384South AmericaDuPont do Brasil, S.A.Tel: + 55 11 4166 8531Area of expansionNorth AmericaTel: 800-222-VESP (8377)Email: web-inquiries.ddf@usa.dupont.comArea of expansionCoefficient Thermal ExpansionData for DesignCoefficient of Thermal Expansion inX/Y directionCoefficient of Thermal Expansion inZ directionUnits10 -6 m/m°C(10 -6 in/in°F)10 -6 m/m°C(10 -6 in/in°F)Vespel ®SP-22Vespel ®SCP-5050Carbon GraphiteStandard <strong>Glass</strong> <strong>Handling</strong> Grade27 (15) 16 (9) 8 (5)66 (36) 47 (27) 8 (5)DuPont (China) Research & DevelopmentManagement Co., LtdTel: +86 400 8851 888DuPont Korea Inc.Tel: +82 2 2222 5463Example of Typical PartExpansion in production serviceUnitsVespel ®SP-22Vespel ®SCP-5050Carbon GraphiteStandard <strong>Glass</strong> <strong>Handling</strong> GradeDuPont (Japan) K.K.Tel: +81 3 5521 2773Typical Expansion inZ direction at 600°F (315°C)Typical Expansion inX/Y direction at 600°F (315°C)mm (in) 0.264 (0.011) 0.188 (0.008) 0.032 (0.002)mm (in) 0.108 (0.004) 0.064 (0.003) 0.032 (0.002)web: vespel.dupont.comemail: web-inquiries.ddf@usa.dupont.comThe data listed here fall within the normal range of properties, but they should not be used <strong>to</strong> establish specification limits nor used alone as the basis of design.
