Telescoping Motor RTP Company End-Use Case Study Nylon 6/10 Compound Is Wear Resistant In Wet And Dry Conditions Trolling for “keepers” on a scenic lake or river takes concentration. Many times, both hands are busy with rods and reels, nets, and tackle. That’s why JWA developed the innovative Minn Kota® Genesis, a bow-mounted trolling motor that’s easy to maneuver in and out of the water with a single foot-controlled button. Two telescoping tubes that glide smoothly inside one another control the unique twist- and-turn or raise-and-lower motions of the motor. In designing the key components that serve as bearing surfaces in the telescope mechanism, JWA ’s engineers searched for a durable compound that would stand up to extended wear in both wet and dry environments.
