drylin® W exchange bearing now available in stainless steel

Fast bearing change in extreme environments

In innumerable tests in the igus® test laboratory, igus® develops and tests materials for drylin® linear technology. Always with the aim of long durability, as low as possible wear rates and a predictable service life. But the question: "What happens if a bearing has to be changed?"is gaining increasingly in importance.
  • Fast bearing change without disassembly
  • Minimised downtime
  • Complete re-use of all components
  • Simple spare parts management
This is exactly what the drylin® W exchange bearing now also enables for stainless steel linear guides or drive units. Open housing at the side, change bearing, close and you are finished. The system is "new" and ready to use again in a very short time Whether chemical, temperature-related or food-related requirements are concerned, linear liners appropriate for every environment are available. And with a weight of 5 grams, spare parts handling is extremely simple.
