MicroCare Medical: Dry lubricant for medical equipment
A focus for MicroCare Medical at this year’s MD&M Minneapolis was the highlighting of its Duraglide dry lubricant, which the company says assists in reducing “stiction,” the combination of sticking and friction. Made from very small polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) particles (average size of 3.7 microns), Duraglide reduces the actuation force. The result, according to MicroCare, is smoother operation and imrpoved product performance for medical equipment.Booth #1650
