drylin® R in a grinder
drylin® R aluminum shafts are used in this grinder to guide the cutting table. The plastic linear bearings operate without any external lubrication, which makes the assembly resistant to dirt and enables smooth operation.
drylin® R linear shafts consist of iglide® plastic liners and anodized aluminum housings that are dimensionally identical to standard recirculating ball bearings. The plastic liner’s patented split design allows for easy assembly onto the linear shaft while the shaft is still in place. Plus, built-in slide pads wipe away debris, making drylin® R linear shafts ideal for use in dirty environments. Choose between multiple iglide® liner materials for high temperatures, FDA-compliance, chemical resistance and other technical advantages. They are available in both metric and imperial sizes.
Low-cost drylin® linear actuators are optimized to be maintenance-free and resistant to dirt. They’re also lightweight, quiet, and suitable for many applications and industries. igus® offers lead screw actuators in various shaft and material combinations as well as belt-driven systems for high speed applications.
The drylin® R quad block is an ideal pre-aligned, bolt-on solution.
Whether your application is high speed, operates in extreme temperatures ranging from -58°F to 482°F or requires FDA/EU-compliant parts, you can find the ideal plain bearing liner that meets your specifications.
drylin® R linear shaft bearings are self-aligning and offer great advantages in applications with parallel shafts. They can compensate for alignment and parallelism errors and should be used on the shaft located farthest from the drive mechanism.

The drylin® R linear shaft bearings are designed with wear-resistant, high-performance plastics and can be used in extreme environments. They’re also dimensionally identical to standard recirculating ball bearings.
