iglide® G220 - round bar stock

iglide® G220 – round bar stock

iglide® G220 combines flexibility with high compressive strength to handle low to medium loads with stable, low-friction sliding. It offers a long service life, low wear and cost-effective performance, with suitability for moderate temperatures and everyday industrial environments.

When to use it: For economical wear parts that need low friction and steady performance up to moderate temperatures.
When not to use it: For very high loads, consider iglide® W300; for harsh chemicals or higher heat, consider iglide® C500 or A500.

Industry/Application Areas

• General machinery and equipment
• Guides, slides and wear pads
• Light-duty rollers and bushings

igus® bar stock materials enable fast, flexible creation of custom components with standard tools or CNC machining. All iglide® bar stocks are self-lubricating and maintenance free, ideal for prototypes, low-volume runs, and geometries outside standard parts. igus® can also machine custom parts from bar stock with quick turnaround.

When to use bar stock:

• No matching size in the iglide® catalog
• Small quantities or special dimensions
• Tribo-optimized plastic needed for low friction and wear on a chosen counterface
• High compressive strength or elasticity required
• Rapid prototypes or design iterations
• Nonstandard or complex geometries

When not to use bar stock:

• A standard iglide® catalog bearing fits
• Very large volumes of one geometry (use standard parts or molding)
• Tribo properties not required and a non-tribo plastic suffices
• The full catalog of semi-finished products is available in the Downloads tab.

Note: Our bar stock is manufactured with excess dimensions.
