iglide® bar stock plate strips RW370
Self-lubricating iglide® bar stock enables you to freely design maintenance-free sliding elements and bearings of all kinds. The variety of iglide® bearing materials guarantees the optimum bearing material with the best friction and wear values to the mating partner.
In addition to the bar stock for independent processing, we will also be happy to produce plain bearings, sliding elements and slide pads in all shapes and sizes. We can even provide urgent prototypes in a matter of days in line with an agreed deadline.
 

Typical application areas

• For applications in the railway industry
• Door guides and hinges, pivoted joints, boarding steps, seat mechanisms and table mechanisms 
• You will find plenty of additional application areas at our industry solutions

 

When to use it? When no suitable size is available in the iglide® catalog For applications in rail technology where suitability according to DIN EN 45545 is required When polymer bar stock with a high level of wear resistance at low to medium pressure loads is required When a low coefficient of friction in dry operation is required When low moisture absorption is required

When not to use it? When a corresponding iglide® standard catalog bearing is available When high pressure loads occur and suitability according to DIN EN 45545 is not required When short-term temperatures higher than +190°C (374°F) occur When a cost-effective bearing for occasional movements is necessary
