iglidur plain bearings are held in place in the smaller housing hole by means of the press-fit. Certain parameters such as high or especially low temperatures, however, can diminish the press-fit – at least temporarily. In this case, technical measures are recommended, such as using collar bushings, other types of component or a more suitable iglidur material […]
This is not the case for such uses at the moment. Gears made of iglidur materials, however, are generally available by way of our 3D printing service. Vote Up +1 Vote Down -0You already voted!
iglidur materials are so-called compounds, plastics that have been mixed with special filling materials and additives. They give the plastic compound additional properties such as greater mechanical strength or protection against UV radiation, and are specially developed for use as plain bearings for dry operation – i.e. they do not require lubrication. Every iglidur material is subjected […]
For uncomplicated and easy installation of our plain bearings, we recommend – a burr-free clean housing hole, ideally with slight chamfering – the hole tolerance H7 – ensuring that the plain bearing is not more than 2 % larger than the hole before it is press-fitted – installation by means of a flat press without […]
Yes. We make iglidur plain bearings according to your wishes and ideas. No minimum order quantity. For this, we make use of the latest manufacturing methods. Whether this involves conventional injection moulding of igus injection moulds made of steel, aluminium or plastic; machining of bar stock; or completely constraint-free 3D printing; as well as coating of metal […]
