iglide® F2 polymer sleeve bearing, metric

iglide® F2 | ESD-compatible, wear-resistant and dissipative

PFAS-tested: All iglide materials labeled as "PFAS-tested" were tested for 96 PFAS substances considered critical for the environment and health. This category excludes substances from the group of fluoropolymers.

• Used to prevent electro-static charges
• Also suitable for wet applications
• Dry-running and maintenance-free
• Standard range from stock

iglide® F2 helps to prevent the build-up of electrostatic charges. Good resistance to media and temperature, suitable even in wet conditions due to low moisture absorption and good universal wear values pave the way for a wide range of applications.
 

When to use it? When the bearing should be electrically discharging When a universal bearing is required for a broad application range

When not to use? When a universal bearing without static discharge capacity is required For underwater use When the highest wear resistance is required

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.
