Dear customers,
On this website we would like to tell you about the the application of lubricant-free and maintenance-free iglidur® plastic plain bearings in fluid engineering.
Hydraulic and pneumatic components give machinery and equipment power, precision, speed and dynamics. The demands on the installed machine elements are correspondingly high.
The range of uses for iglidur® plain bearings, igubal® spherical bearings and DryLin® linear bearings in fluid engineering is constantly increasing.
They also prove themselves in fittings and valves. From simple linear movements through to quickly rotating applications in the medium, they provide a high wear and abrasion resistance, plus chemical and temperature resistance as well as freedom from maintenance in dry operations.

… lubrication-free endurance runner
Specially developed for fast continuous operation under low loads, iglidur® L500, inter alia, is intended for fan and electric motor applications.
Products for fluid engineering
Polymer bearings for wet environments or with high temperature and chemical resistance
Piston rings
for linear, pivoting and rotating movements
Advantages:
Easy assembly
Low-price injection-molded part
Wear resistant
Defined clearance
No deformation by higher loads
iglidur® J
The fast-and-slow-motion specialist
The perfect combination of wear-resistant bearings at low to medium loads and best coefficients of friction. Extreme dimension stability even in moist applications
iglidur® X
High-tech troubleshooter
When it's hot, iglidur® X is the right solution. This is true both literally and figuratively, for instance with extreme chemicals. The interesting thing is the abrasion resistance actually increases at high temperatures.
iglidur® A180
Delicious
FDA compliant material for applications with low to medium loads in immediate environs of (or contact with) food or drugs, as well as humidity.
iglidur® A500
Specialist in the food sector - up to 250°C - FDA compliant
FDA compliant material for applications with extremely high temperatures in the immediate vicinity of (or contact with) food.
iglidur® H
For wet areas
Resistant to chemicals and suitable for temperatures up to 200°C. Very low coefficients of friction in association with hardened shafts.
iglidur® H1
The continuous runner at high temperatures
iglidur® H1 is the first choice when high holding times are required in extreme environmental conditions. Ultimate wear resistance and outstanding temperature and media resistance.
iglidur® H370:
The most suitable for wet areas
Suitable for rotary, oscillating and linear movements. Characteristics: Moisture absorption <0.1 %, saturation point in water <0.1 %, temperature range –40 to +200 °C. First choice e.g. in bottling plants.
iglidur® UW
Underwater bearings
extremely wear resistant, cost-effective, for high speeds, with low loads, temperature range up to 90 °C, special dimensions and special designs. First choice e.g. in pump applications.
iglidur® UW500
Underwater bearings
for high speeds, at temperatures up to 250 °C (short-term 315 °C), high chemical resistance, use in various liquids. First choice e.g. in water pumps for the automotive industry.
xiros®
Lubricant-free polymer ball bearings, suitable for extreme environments.
Special parts
Tailor-made solutionsSpecial designs and iglidur® special materials - (almost) everything is possible.
