PFAS-tested: All iglide materials labeled as "PFAS-tested" were tested for the 96 PFAS substances considered critical for the environment and health using the SQP M1227 test method (LC-MS/MS and GC-MS) and do not contain any substances >0.1% by mass. This category excludes substances from the group of fluoropolymers.
- Lowest wear rates under extreme dry running conditions
- No external lubrication and maintenance
- Tested in the igus test laboratory up to 130 MPa and 0.01 m/s swiveling
- Long service life due to low wear, no additional lubrication required
igutex® TX3 | Fiber composite plain bearing for high load applications
PFAS-tested: All iglide materials labeled as "PFAS-tested" were tested for the 96 PFAS substances considered critical for the environment and health using the SQP M1227 test method (LC-MS/MS and GC-MS) and do not contain any substances >0.1% by mass. This category excludes substances from the group of fluoropolymers.
Agricultural and construction machinery in particular require maximum service life and operational reliability. igutex® TX3 is designed for dry-running use. Machine downtime due to insufficient lubrication are therefore ruled out. This reduces costs and is good for the environment.
Tolerances and measurement system
The 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.
Assembly
iglide® 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.
