iglide® P | The cost-effective outdoor all-around performer - No moisture expansion even with high ambient humidity- Low water absorption
- Low wear rates
- High load capacity
- Cost-effective
- Dry-running and maintenance-free
- Standard range from stock
Due to thermal stability and low water absorption, the iglide® P bearings are among the most dimensionally stabile allround bearings under varying environmental conditions. iglide® P bearings are recommended for swivel and rotation movements for medium loads.

Tolerances and measurement systemThe 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.
Testing methods Assemblyiglide® 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.
