Plastic Ball Bearings  Manufacturers, Traders, Suppliers

Xiros® plastic ball bearings from igus® revolutionize the ball bearing market. Due to the maintenance-free dry running through the use of xirodur® high-performance polymers, many applications can now be successfully solved in which conventional metal ball bearings were previously not effective.The product range of plastic ball bearings includes a large number of different product variants. These single row deep groove ball bearings are polymer ball bearings to DIN 625. They all get along without any additional lubrication. This results in considerable advantages in application, since lubricants do not contaminate the application environment, are not washed out or decompose due to external influences.The good predictability of the xiros® polymer ball bearings is one of the most important advantages. Based on the results of many wear tests and high material competence, the user can reliably calculate the service life of xiros® polymer ball bearings and design his application, also online.Plastic ball bearings are suitable for a variety of applications in which, in comparison to permanently lubricated metallic ball bearings, the highest speeds or loads are not important, but exactly the lubricant-free application. This is the case, for example, in the food, packaging and medical technology, textile industry or also in the chemical industry and clean room applications as well as electronics and office technology. Suitable applications also result from the freedom from metals and the property of being non-magnetic. Here it is mainly applications in medical technology and measurement technology.The advantages in detail:- lubricant- and maintenance-free- high corrosion resistance- suitable for temperatures up to +150 °C- high media resistance- rinsable- non-magnetic- light weightPlastic ball bearings are particularly suitable when lubricant-free ball bearings are desired, for maintenance-free dry running, at rotational speeds exceeding the limits of a sliding bearing, when corrosion resistance is required, when temperatures up to +150 °C are reached (possible depending on type), when media resistance and rinsability are required, when non-magnetic ball bearings are to be used, at the request for low weight, at the requirement of FDA conformity.
