When to use it? When optimising wear resistance compared to iglidur® J When very low coefficients of friction in dry operation are required When high wear resistance at low loads is required When low moisture absorption is fundamental When good liquid media resistance is required

When not to use it? When a wear-resistant bearing is required for linear strokes iglidur® J, sleeve bearing with flange, mm When continuous operating temperatures are higher than +90°C iglidur® J260, sleeve bearing with flange, mm When radial surface pressure is higher than 45MPa iglidur® W300, sleeve bearing with flange, mm Use our filter options to find the suitable product

Tolerances and measuring system
The installation dimensions and tolerances of the iglidur® plain bearings depend on the material and wall thickness. For each material, the moisture absorption and the thermal expansion are decisive factors. Plain bearings with low moisture absorption can be installed with a smaller bearing clearance. The rule for wall thickness: the thicker the wall of the bearings, the larger the clearances must be.
Testing methods

Assembly
iglidur® bearings are press-fit bushings. The inner diameter is only adjusted to the appropriate tolerance after pressing into the housing hole. The press-fit excess dimension can be up to 2% of the inner diameter. This ensures the secure press-fitting of the bearings. Axial or radial movements in the housing are thus reliably avoided.
