iglide® J3 polymer flange bearing, imperial

iglide® J3 |The new endurance runner: specialist for pulsating loads

PFAS-tested: All iglide materials labeled as "PFAS-tested" were tested for the 96 PFAS substances considered critical for the environment and health using the SQP M1227 test method (LC-MS/MS and GC-MS) and do not contain any substances >0.1% by mass. This category excludes substances from the group of fluoropolymers.

• Low coefficients of friction
• Good liquid media resistance
• Very little humidity absorption
• PTFE-free
• Dry-running and maintenance-free
• Standard range from stock

iglide® J3 is a material with improved wear resistance at low to medium loads and high speed. The lifetime is up to 300 % longer than iglide® J – the proven top endurance runner material.
 

When to use it? If wear resistance rotating or oscillating of iglide® J should be optimized When very low coefficients of friction in dry operation are required If high wear resistance at low loads is required If low moisture absorption is requested If good liquid media resistance is required

When not to use? If you need a wear resistant bearing for linear motion If temperatures are higher than +194 °F If radial surface pressure is higher than 5076 psi

Tolerances and measurement system
The installation dimensions and tolerances of the iglide® plain bearings are a function of the material and wall thicknesses. For each material, the moisture absorption and the thermal expansion are imperative. Plain bearings with low moisture absorption can be designed with a minimal amount of tolerance. For wall thickness, the rule is: The thicker the bearings are, the larger the tolerances must be.
 
Assembly
iglide® bearings are press-fit bearings. The inner diameter adjusts only after press-fit in the proper housing bore with a recommended tolerance. The before press-fit oversized dimension can be up to 2% of the inner diameter. In this manner, the secure press-fitting of the bearing is achieved. Axial or radial shifts in the housing are also prevented.
