iglide® B250 - round bar stock

iglide® B250 – round bar stock

iglide® B250 is a tough, impact-resistant triboplastic designed to absorb shocks and edge loads while maintaining low friction and quiet running. It suits rollers and wear parts that see intermittent impacts or vibration, delivering dependable service life and media resistance in everyday machinery.

When to use it: For rollers, guides and wear elements that see impacts, edge pressures or vibration and need smooth, quiet motion.
When not to use it: For extreme static loads, consider W300; for aggressive chemicals and high heat, consider C500 or A500.

Industry/Application Areas

• Conveying and material handling (impact zones, rollers)
• General machinery guards and guides
• Packaging and automation fixtures

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.
