iglidur® Z – Extremely long service life under extreme conditions - Resistant to wear & impact even at high loads and temperatures
 

• Excellent wear resistance, especially with high loads
• High thermal resistance
• For extreme loads
• For high surface speeds
• Resistant to edge loads
• Lubrication- and maintenance-free
• Standard range from stock

Extremely high compressive strength coupled with high elasticity enables iglidur® Z bearings to attain their prominent properties in association with soft shafts, edge loads and impacts. The bearings are also suitable for temperatures up to +250 °C.

Tolerances and measurement system
The installation dimensions and tolerances of iglidur® plain bearings are a function of the material and wall thicknesses. For each material, the moisture absorption and the thermal expansion are decisive factors. Plain bearings with low moisture absorption can be designed with a minimal bearing clearance. The rule for wall thickness: the thicker the wall of the bearings, the larger the clearances must be.
Testing methods
 
Assembly
iglidur® plain bearings are press-fit bearings. The inner diameter adjusts only after press-fitting in the correctly toleranced housing. The press-fit excess dimension can be up to 2% of the inner diameter. This ensures the secure press-fitting of the bearing. Axial or radial movement in the housing are prevented this way.
