igubal® spherical bearings

igubal® bearings are self-aligning components made from high performance polymers.
With the igubal® series, users have access to a wide range of options: rod ends, clevis joints, flange bearings, spherical and pillow block bearings. The self-aligning bearings are also easy to mount, adapt to all angular misalignments and, in many cases, can substitute special housings. Due to the fact igubal® bearings are made from high performance polymers, they have excellent vibration dampening properties and can operate dry.
igubal® spherical bearings are insensitive to dirt, can operate in liquids and chemicals and are completely corrosion resistant. They are lightweight and can reduce your costs twofold, namely:

Maintenance and assembly costs.

Practical examples

Limelight BV

Examples of application of igubal®: Stadium paneling  
Stadium panelling

igubal® spherical bearings (series K) are used in the main bearing assembly of every individual slat in this stadium, due to the fact they are maintenance-free and corrosion resistant. These turnable slats enable the regulation of air flow inside the stadium.

Max Planck Institut

Examples of application of igubal®: Max Planck Institut, Research Institute for Physics and Astrophysics  
Research institute for physics and astrophysics

Research goes hand-in-hand with innovative igubal® bearings. This telescope's mirror adjustment is performed with virtually no backlash thanks to igubal® rod end bearings. Magnetic influences are also avoided with the polymer bearings.

Multicar GmbH

Examples of application of igubal®: Special-purpose vehicles  
Manufacturer of special-purpose vehicles

Rod end bearings are insensitive to dirt, dust and are maintenance free, so are an excellent choice for special-purpose vehicles. Here they are also used in the vehicle's brakes.

Hymer AG

Examples of application of igubal®: Caravan step  
Caravan step

Rod end bearings for caravan steps should be tough and insensitive to dirt. igubal® rod ends are maintenance-free and vibration dampening. The rod end bearings withstand high loads even in worst-case scenarios.

Wolf Spezialmaschinen GmbH

Examples of application of igubal®: Chocolate decoration system  
Chocolate decoration system

The use of maintenance-free igubal® rod end bearings means there is no lubricant contamination. The polymer bearings can also cope with continuous cleaning without suffering from corrosion.

SAHM GmbH & Co. KG

Examples of application of igubal®: Textile industry  
Textile industry

Spherical rod end bearings support the guide unit for the thread winder. The elasticity of the igubal® rod end bearings insulates the micro-vibrations better than any comparable metallic products.
