Ceramics and Cemets

Lubrication Knowledge Menu

Ceramics and cermets. Ceramics and cermets can be used in applications where low wear rate is more critical than low friction. These composites can be used at temperatures up to 1000C (1832F). Cermets have a distinct advantage over ceramics in terms of toughness and ductility. However, the metal content tends to reduce the maximum temperature limit. Solid lubricant use with bulk ceramics is limited to insertion in machined holes or recesses.
