  • in Bushings

    igus produces maintenance-free, plain, plasticĀ bearings that come in more than 8,000 imperial and metric sizes and are lubrication-free, waterproof, and suitable for temperatures up to 482 degree Fahrenheit. The most popular styles include the M250 which has a coefficient of friction of 0.1 to 0.3, PSI of 2,901, maximum PV of 3,400, and is high-impact resistant. Others include the iglide J (chemical-resistant), R (low moisture absorption), A200 (abrasion-resistant), G300 (vibration-dampening), and L280 (for soft shaft materials). The company also manufactures Drylin linear bearings and iglubal spherical bearings.

  • in Linear Bearings

    Igus, Inc. is a manufacturer of linear bearings desgined to run dry, without the need for lubricants or downtime typically associated with re-circulating ball bearing systems. These products are resistant to dirt, dust and chemicals and can handle underwater applications.

  • in Metric Bearings

    igus makes metric size plastic bearings in many types, including spherical, self-aligning, self-lubricating, linear plain, rod ends, and many others.

  • in Pivot Bearings

    igus Inc. manufactures pivot bearings with dimensions from 0.19 to 1.2". Produced according to DIN ISO 12240 standards, the pivot bearings are available as double joint and miniature types.

  • in Plain Bearings

    igus Inc. manufactures self-lubricating plain bearings whose features include: maintenance-free, lubrication-free, corrosion-resistant, insensitivity to dirt, high accuracy, high compressive strength, good heat conductivity, very low creeping tendency, and high vibration dampening.

  • in Plastic Bearings

    Igus provides customers with a variety of plastic bearing solutions. Every year, Igus engineers develop more than 100 new plastic compounds and conduct more than 5,000 tests on maintenance-free plain bearings. The Iglide bearing material possesses a number of special features making it suitable for particular applications and requirements, and is available in more than 8,000 imperial and metric bearing sizes.

  • in Plastic Bushings

    Igus Inc's iglide plastic bushings are used for a number of applications including chemical-exposed, dirty, underwater, high load and high temperature. Constructed from reinforced fibers and solid lubricates, the bushings can handle high temperature up to 482F and feature high wear resistance.

  • in Self-Aligning Bearings

    Igus offers self-aligning, maintenance-free spherical bearings made entirely of high-performance plastics. They are self-lubricating and available in various designs and configurations, including rod ends, clevis joints, flange bearings, pivot bearings and pillow blocks. The self-aligning bearings are easy to install, adapt to all angular deviations, and replace special housings in many cases.

  • in Slewing Bearings

    Igus Inc. manufactures PRT slewing ring bearings that utilize self-lubricating, low-friction sliding elements in place of ball bearings. Hand clamp, drive plate, and mounting ring types are available. The company's standard slewing rings feature hard anodized aluminum or stainless steel inner and outer rings.
