by continuous advancements in materials.
Predictable life cycle –
no lubricant necessary
Lubrication-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.

Lubrication-free bearing with igus® –
good for the environment and the
wallet
Lubrication-free and light weight
The 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 environment
iglidur® 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.

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.

In contrast to metallic plain and rolling bearings, iglidur®

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

number of special features making it suitable for particular
applications and requirements

polymers’ tribological properties. In addition to their general

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, lubricantfree, all of that means no contamination of products of the
aseptic atmosphere.

igubal® spherical bearings are listed
from 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-
are insensitive to dirt, liquids, chemicals and fully corrosionproof. Bearings from the igubal® range are very light,
compact and economical on two fronts:
Low purchase price
Low maintenance and installation costs
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

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.

xiros® polymer ball bearings are listed
from 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
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.
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

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

tasks is extremely rigid due to the hardanodized aluminum
profile. All bearing points are furnished with dry-running
iglidur® materials.
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
