Plastic Plain Bearings  Manufacturers, Traders, Suppliers

Plastic plain bearings offer THE alternative to lubricated plain and roller bearings. More than 50% of machine failures are caused by insufficient lubrication! Tribopolymers specially developed by igus® for permanent dry running solve this problem. Because igus® plastic plain bearings do not require lubrication, they are lubricant-free.By dispensing with lubrication with the latest polymer technology, best service lives can be achieved under extreme ambient conditions: from -100°C to permanently +250°C, in the clean room or under extreme dirt load, under vacuum up to the highest air humidity.For applications without lubrication and for long service lives, in extreme ambient conditions, for the lowest friction and wear values in continuous operation or let-out operation.Plastic plain bearings from igus® are lubricant-free, maintenance-free, cost-effective and absolutely versatile. In addition, your expected service life can be predicted on the basis of numerous tests and years of experience. Plastic plain bearings are suitable for large series in the automotive sector or for special mechanical engineering, for underwater applications, for the food or tobacco industry, for extreme temperature and chemical resistance or for simple sheet metal feed-through - either as a catalog program or as a customized, customized solution. iglidur® plastics have been developed and tested with regard to wear and coefficient of friction as well as many other relevant material properties in our own laboratory. In countless tests, the most durable materials for each special application - whether rotating, pivoting or linear, whether fast or slow, whether high or low load, whether dry or under water, on different shafts, etc. are determined in our in-house laboratory. The tribopolymers form the technological core of all igus® products. iglidur® polymer plain bearings from igus® represent the step from the simple plastic bushing to the tested and thus calculable machine element. You can also quickly and easily find the suitable plastic plain bearing solution online with one of the numerous product finder and service life calculators and calculate the expected service life online.
