Saint-Gobain Performance Plastics

Owners and operators of integrated steel production plants will be interested to hear that dramatic increases in the life of grinding wheels can be achieved when regenerating the steel or cast iron rolls in their rolling mills. Particularly impressive consumable savings result from using two recently introduced Norton brand products from Saint-Gobain Abrasives Ltd. One is QUANTUM, incorporating ceramic grain, while the other is VORTEX, which has fused alumina grain.

Two small, highly engineered components from Saint-Gobain Performance Plastics – RENCOL® tolerance rings and NORGLIDE® self-lubricating plain bearings – are significantly improving the performance of automotive powertrain components.
