The iglidur® polymer plain bearings catalog maps materials to operating windows for dry, lubricated and wash‑down duty. It compares wear rates, PV limits and chemical resistance so you can choose the right sleeve or flange bearing for each axis.
Dimension tables are accompanied by recommended housing fits and shaft finishes. Thermal expansion and moisture absorption are addressed with guidance on clearance design across temperature and humidity ranges.
Application notes show how to replace metal‑backed bushes to reduce maintenance and eliminate grease contamination.
Life calculation methods and test data from the igus lab back up selections with predictable service intervals.
