Thanks to the use of iglidur® H2 polymer bearings, contact corrosion through metallic bushings has been able to be completely eliminated at one vehicle manufacturer's. In addition to the cost saving, the better damping properties of iglidur® bearings bring advantages. They improve the switching feeling and minimise noise.
Main criteria for the application
Pivoting motion in every switching operation
Maximum temperature till 160°
Push-out forces according to 68h > 150N
Contact possible with gear oil
Unlike the igus® bearings, metallic roller bearings face contact corrosion problems with aluminum die-cast housings
Series in the igus® delivery program since 1995
