With the aid of 3D printing, injection moulds can be manufactured at up to 80% lower costs. As a result, 3D-printed moulds are particularly interesting for small batches and samples, and can be commissioned for a quantity of 1 or more. The complete iglidur range of 50 materials is available for the maintenance-free plastic plain […]
In actual fact, what is understood as load capacity mainly depends on the relation of the load-bearing surface to the load to be borne. A plain bearing with a large load-bearing surface can therefore carry more load than one with a small such surface. This means that the inner diameter – namely the shaft diameter […]
Many iglidur materials are compliant with FDA or EU 10/2011 and are therefore suitable for use in contact with food. In the iglidur plain bearing shop, you can use these requirements to filter your search results quickly and easily.In addition, for example, example, the materials iglidur A181 and A350 can be detected visually due to their special blue […]
iglidur plain bearings have been optimised for use as fixed-position bearings. This means that the shaft moves in the fixed plain bearing; but it is also possible to fix the shaft in position and design the system so that the bearing moves.

Yes. Regarding shafts for iglidur plain bearings, we recommend a roughness of 0.2 µm to 0.4 µm. A low degree of roughness can cause stick-slip effects or very fine nicks in the plastic, which can occur as a consequence of high adhesion forces.
