Longer life cycles, lower costs

Innovations with high-performanceplasticsigus® polymer plain bearings constitute the step from

a simple plastic bushing to a tested, predictable and

available machine component.

Our research is essentially aimed at precise forecasts

of bearing properties – especially life cycle – achieved

by continuous advancements in materials.

Predictable life cycle –no lubricant necessaryLubrication-free operation is something every designer

strives for.

igus® polymer plain bearings make this dream a reality.

Decades of research now permit precise calculations

of a polymer plain bearing’s life cycle.

Fit and forget –matching solutions ex stock

lnnovative, quickly assembled and

economicalproducts

Delivery ex stock – lower storage costs

Large product selection – find the right solution at

once

Time-saving tools on the Internet

We deliver customized, ready-to-fit units

Quick reaction customer service with many local

representatives in Germany and worldwide.

igus® maintenance-free polymer plain bearings help

improve your products and reduce costs at the same

time.

Many sample applications can be found at www.igus.co.uk

Exciting applications www.igus.co.uk/plastics

Lubrication-free bearing with igus® –good for the environment and the walletLubrication-free and light weightThe tribo-optimised iglidur® plastic plain bearings from igus®

require neither oil nor grease. Due to continuous advanced

developments the bearings specialist igus® now supplies

alternatives more in line with environmental considerations

for more and more applications that work with lubricated

metallic plain and rolling bearings. The energy balance for

the manufacture of plastics is very positive. Whereas the

energy from 15 litres of oil is necessary to produce 1 litre

of aluminum, and 1 litre of steel requires 11 litres of oil, the

production of 1 litre of plastic only needs an average of 1.8

to 2.3 litres of oil.

Do you allready know, that the production of plastics only

requires 4 percent of annual worldwide oil requirements?

Good for the environmentiglidur® bearings are lubricantfree, so that no contaminants

escape into the environment. The lightweight bearings will

also help to reduce fuel consumption and carbon dioxide

output in, for example, vehicles or aircrafts. Basically the

reduced weight leads to lower masses and subsequently

lower energy consumption.

material (converted to litres of oil).

In contrast to metallic plain and rolling bearings, iglidur®

plastic plain bearings from igus® require no oil or grease for

lubrication.

A study has found that no less than half of all

machine lubricants currently used in Germany

seeps into soil and waters or evaporates into

the atmosphere. According to a research

team of chemists, mechanical engineers and

environmentalists from the RWTH in Aachen, the

estimates for Germany alone consume 250,000

tonnes per year. This corresponds to the amount

required to fill 8,000 tankers.

iglidur® plain bearings are listed frompage 21

Excellent polymers, improved through precise additions

of reinforcements and solid lubricants, testedthousands

of times, and proved millions of times – that is iglidur®.

Every year, igus® engineers develop more than 100 new

plastic compounds and conduct more than 5,000 tests

on maintenance-free plain bearings. Over the years, this

has made it possible to establish a large database of

polymers’ tribological properties. In addition to their general

properties, every iglidur® bearing material possesses a

number of special features making it suitable for particular

applications and requirements

Page 9: Introduction

Practical example

igus® bearings and linear sliding films made of iglidur®

material, which meets all demands of aseptic filling, are

used here. Low adhesion and attrition factors against

different kinds of stainless steel, negligible moisture absorp

tion, very good stability against PES-cleaners, lubricant-

free, all of that means no contamination of products of the

aseptic atmosphere.

igubal® spherical bearings are listedfrom page 563

igubal® spherical bearings are self-aligning components

made entirely of high-performance plastics.

The igubal® series provides designers with a complete

system of self aligning bearings: Rod ends, clevis joints,

flange bearings, pivot bearings and pillow blocks. Self-

adjusting bearings are easy to fit, adaptable to wide angular

ranges and have been used to replace special housings

in many cases.

igubal® offers all the advantages of high-performance

plastics, including dry-running capability combined with

very good vibration damping. igubal® spherical bearings

are insensitive to dirt, liquids, chemicals and fully corrosion-

proof. Bearings from the igubal® range are very light,

compact and economical on two fronts:

Low purchase price

Low maintenance and installation costs

Page 11: Introduction

Practical example

TRIPENDO GmbH Bicycle Manufacturing

The reclining wheel’s curve inclination is realized by means

of rod ends in the journal link. The high top speed and rapid

acceleration are partly due to the rod ends’ low weight.

The bearing points do not require any elaborate sealing

measures.

Page 12: Introduction

xiros® polymer ball bearings are listedfrom page 679

The xiros® plastic ball bearings are single-row grooved

ball bearings based on DIN 625. The lubricant-free and

maintenance-free ball bearings consist of four components:

The outer ring

The inner ring

The cage

And the balls

The inner and outer rings are made of igus® tribopolymers to

maximize service life and minimize coefficients of friction. In

contrast to metallic ball bearings, xiros® plastic ball bearings

manage absolutely without lubrication. For this reason they

are suited for a multitude of applications that depend not on

extreme rotary speeds or loads, but just on lubricant-free

application in contrast to permanently lubricated metallic

ball bearings. These areas are for example food and medical

industries, packaging and textile industries, or the chemical

industry and cleanroom applications as well as electronics

and office technology.

Page 13: Introduction

Practical example

tesa scribos GmbH

The xiros® plastic ball bearings B180 are used

in coated guide rollers of different machines

and provides the material guidance. The xiros®

polymer ball bearings used now are cheaper

by one-half and are supplied faster than the

previously used bearings. Moreover, the low

weight, low friction and the freedom from

lubricants are congenial for the application.

DryLin® linear plain bearings, linear slide modules and drive technology are listed from page 707

DryLin® linear plain bearings are solid state, a totally different

approach when compared with traditional recirculating

ball bearing systems. These sliding plain bearings can

basically be made of any high-performance polymer of the

iglidur® series. This blends the advantages of DryLin® linear

technology with those of all the various iglidur® bearing

materials. DryLin® linear bearing systems are designed for

dry-running. These systems are thus protected against

exposure to greases and oils. As a result, ambient dust

and abraded material cannot cling to the bearing surfaces.

Unlike recirculating-ball bushings, DryLin® bearings have

no restrictions in terms of minimum stroke length and

are almost inaudible during operation. The flat, compact

Leadscrew linear table for variable formats and handling

tasks is extremely rigid due to the hardanodized aluminum

profile. All bearing points are furnished with dry-running

iglidur® materials.
