Why Nylon Beats Steel.
Metal-on-metal contact destroys boom sections. Our Oil-Impregnated Nylon Pads offer:
- 7x Longer Life: High abrasion resistance compared to standard plastic.
- No Greasing: Internal lubricants release slowly under pressure.
- Shock Absorption: Dampens vibration during container placement.

The Hidden Cost of Friction
Worn pads cause metal-on-metal gouging inside the boom sections. Replacing a damaged boom costs $30,000+. Replacing Zhenke pads costs $300.
THICKNESS MATTERS
A 2mm reduction in pad thickness can cause boom misalignment. Drag to see a worn pad vs. a new 20mm Zhenke pad.
