iglide® HSD350 polymer sleeve bearing, metric

iglide® HSD350 | Media-resistant and hygienic at low costs
 
The new material enables continuous use where hygiene is important, including regular sterilization, with an outstanding price/performance ratio.
 

When to use it? When the bearing point is regularly sterilised using hot steam When a low-cost material is needed at the same time When good chemical resistance is required Low moisture absorption

When not to use it? When high pressure loads occur When short-term temperatures higher than +120°C occur When a cost-effective bearing for occasional movements is necessary

 
Tolerances and measurement system
The installation dimensions and tolerances of the iglidur® 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 bearing clearance. The rule for wall thickness: the thicker the wall of the bearings, the larger the clearances must be.
 
Assembly
iglidur® bearings are press-fit bearings. The inner diameter adjusts only after press-fit in the correctly toleranced housing. The press-fit excess dimension can be up to 2% of the inner diameter. This ensures the secure press-fitting of the bearing. Axial or radial movement in the housing are prevented this way.
