Work & Haul Trucks
Composite bearings and cylinders that keep work trucks running harder, longer.
Design better performance into your next project.
Polygon engineers have collaborated with customers on composite tube and bearing solutions for just about anything that can be attached or added to a work truck. Non-metallic cylinders reduce maintenance needs and weight in heavy trucking equipment. Polygon works with leading OEMs to deliver composite bearing and cylinder solutions that improve performance and reduce total cost of ownership for work and haul truck applications.
Potential Applications
Waste and recycling trucks
Car carriers
Belly dumpers
Service cranes
Fifth wheel air releases
Dump trucks
Hydraulic lift systems
Cylinder pivot points
When should you use Polygon Composites?
Self-lubrication is required
Bearing neglect could lead to product liability claims or premature failure
Maintenance costs need to be closely monitored
Stick-slip conditions exist
High load capacities are needed
Resistance to chemical, galvanic, or fretting-related corrosion is a problem
Galling and scoring need to be minimized
Electrical insulation is required

I think [Polygon] has awesome design.
Certainly has all the features and characteristics to fit our needs, with superior rust prevention over anything on the market I have seen today.
