Plain bearings in cooling water controllers

Advantages of iglide® plain bearings in this application:

  • Resistance to water-glycol mixture
  • Cost advantage compared to ceramics and carbon graphite bearings
  • Silent operation
  • High sliding speed in the medium and therefore hydrodynamic lubrication
  • Mixed friction during starting/stopping possible
  • Short-term high speed of up to 2m/s possible in unlubricated condition
  • Overmolding possible
Sebastian Bloechl, Sales Manager for the Automotive Industry, explains the advantages of our plain bearings in cooling water controllers
