Hydrostatic Bearings for Hydraulic and Pneumatic Systems

Valve technology

Each shut-off valve consists of an actuator and an actuator element (= valve). Their high chemical resistance and freedom from maintenance ensure our products are ideal for the use in valve technology.

Pump technology

Whether coolant pump in the car or washing water pump in the dishwasher: iglide® plain bearings are resistant to chemicals and withstand high sliding speeds of up to 6,500rpm when used in the medium.

Meter systems

There are meters for water and gas in every household. igus® components such as gears, plain bearings or coupling rods can be installed. With special materials, including for underwater use, we find solutions for every application.

Consumers/components

Whether gas spring, hydraulic or pneumatic cylinder: with iglide® guide rings and plain bearings, low-clearance piston guides can be achieved under almost all conditions.

Valve technology - actuator

Valve

Chemical-resistant plain bearings and guide rings e. g. made of iglide® H370 for vertical piston guide
Patented lead screw geometry and temperature-resistant lead screw nut e. g. made of iglide® J350 for vertical drive of the shut-off body

Slider

Dirt-resistant plain bearing and guide rings e. g. made of iglide® G for vertical piston guide
Patented lead screw geometry and chemical-resistant lead screw nut made of e. g. iglide® J350 for vertical drive of the shut-off body

Tap

Food-compatible plain bearings or sliding plates e. g. made of iglide® A350 for rotary motion of the ball valve
Special sliding ring and thrust washer for guiding and sealing the ball

Shut-off/throttle damper

iglide® Q plain bearing for high dynamic loads in the pivot points of the flaps
Optimized for pivoting movements of the flap

Valve technology - actuator

Linear drive

Lubrication-free plain bearings e. g. made of iglide® G300 for shaft bearings
Noise dampening plastic gears e. g. made of iguform S270 for transmission in the gearbox
Lead screw and lead screw nut for vertical movement also possible in special shapes

Rotary drive

Lubrication-free plain bearings e. g. made of iglide® G300 for shaft bearings
Noise dampening plastic gears e. g. made of iguform S270 for transmission in the gearbox
Lead screw and lead screw nut for vertical movement also possible in special shapes

Pump technology

Wet running pumps

Media-resistant plain bearings e. g. made of iglide® H3 for the bearing of the drive shaft
Rotation in a medium (water, oil, etc.) makes revolutions of up to 6,500 rpm possible

Vertical pump

Sewage-resistant plain bearings e. g. made of iglide® UW for the bearing of the drive shaft
Short-term high speed of up to 2m/s possible in unlubricated condition

Roller pumps

Media-resistant conveyor rollers e. g. made of iglide® H1 for rotation
xiros guide rollers with very low break-away torque for rolling motion

Meter systems

Water meters

With a plain bearing made of iglide® UW160, the bucket wheel "floats" on the bearing point. Minimal friction, as UW160 has the same density as water.
xiros ball bearing with glass balls for smooth-running, corrosion-free bearing of the impeller wheel
Cost-effective production of the entire bucket wheel by injection molding
Low-wear plastic gears and plain bearing in the gearbox

Gas meter

Self-lubricating plain bearings e. g. made of iglide® G300 in the pump mechanism of the counter
Customized coupling joints for the transmission of forces in the gearbox
Low-wear plastic gears in transmission

Consumers/components

Hydraulic cylinder

Heavy-duty and oil-resistant guide rings or plain bearings e. g. made of iglide® Q for guiding the piston
Plain bearings sealed against dirt e.g. iglide® SG03 in the pivot point of the cylinders
igubal spherical ball with spherical compensation as self-lubricating insert in cylinder pivot point

Pneumatic cylinder

Wear-optimised plain bearings and guide rings e. g. made of iglide® G300 for guiding the piston
drylin R shafts made of aluminium, steel or stainless steel can be used as pistons
igubal KBRM rod ends can be combined with the shaft to achieve spherical compensation at the connection
