The possibility of using fibre production wastes as polymeric compositional materials (PCM) was studied with the purpose of minimising ecological risks through the rational utilisation of production wastes and the reduction of biologically irresolvable materials in the environment. The articles of PCM were tested and used in the friction units of metallurgical, chemical and mining equipment in the construction of the machines. These articles can be used instead of ferrous or non-ferrous metals and textolite. The use of PCM as a bearing shell for spindle support in pilger mills, hemispheres of half-couplings pilger mills, cartridges, rollers of piercing mills, seats of pipe-cutting machines, friction-bearings in the rollers of rollerbeds in ovens, conveyor rollers of etching sections in tin-zinc production, in the production of ammonia saltpetre in oven rollers of electric-insulation aggregate, supports of blocks of de-fatting units in tower ovens, cleaning blocks in foundries, rotor plates in rotation compressors, cartridges of rollers in mining conveyor belts, in pumps of acid transition, sweet water and sea water, press-on bushes and guide bushes, hydroplungers of water-pumps increased the service life of these units by 3–6 times.
