iglide® W300, plate strips

Previously named iglide®  L280

iglide® W300 offers high wear resistance, even with rough shafts or particularly abrasive surrounding media. Of all materials in the iglide® series, this material has the greatest resistance to external influences. Self-lubricating iglide® bar stock materials offer the option of freely designing all types of maintenance-free sliding elements and bearings. The variety of iglide® plain bearing materials ensures optimum matching of the bearing material with the best coefficients of friction and wear for the counter partner.
In addition to bar stock for our own processing, we also offer you the production of plain bearings, sliding elements and glide strips of any shape. We can even provide urgent prototypes in a matter of days in line with an agreed deadline.

Note: Our bar stock is manufactured with excess dimensions.
