igus® Bearings: Zero Lubrication & Maintenance-Free Solution

Why igus® Plain Bearings Are the Industry Standard

bearing | bushing | plastic plain bearing plain bearing iglidur
iglidur® plain bearing made of plastic and used to minimise direct contact e.g. between the shaft and the mount to prevent wear, which is crucial for the longevity and efficiency of machinery. Unlike traditional bearings that necessitate frequent lubrication, iglidur® plain bearings from igus® stand out with their self-lubricating properties, eliminating the need for additional lubricants. This distinctive feature renders them maintenance-free and economically advantageous. The iglidur® range, accessible through the plain bearing online shop, boasts an extensive selection of over 10,000 sizes and diverse designs, catering to a multitude of industrial requirements. The specialized materials selection, meticulously engineered by igus®, are designed to accommodate a broad spectrum of applications across various sectors. These bearings are adept at operating under extreme conditions, whether it involves high temperatures, direct contact with food or chemicals, or bearing substantial loads.

maintenance free bearing

Lubrication and maintenance-free

Due to the self-lubricating effect iglidur plastic bearings do not require any additional lubricants. How it works? Our iglidur materials contain solid lubricants, millions of which are contained in the material. These lubricants are released in tiny amounts and thus lubricate the bearing point. Therefore there are no problems with insufficient lubrication and only minimal maintenance requirements
cost effective bearing

Cost-effective

Our self-lubricating plain bearings reduce your maintenance costs and completely save additional expenses for lubricants - with no minimum order quantity up to high volume. Our plastic plain bushes are up to 89% more cost-effective than plain bearings made of steel or bronze. 
Example: €2.37/piece versus €0.25/piece

lubricating bushings with chemical resistance

Resistant to chemicals and media

Our range includes a variety of different slide bearing plastics, which are e. g. characterised by high chemical or temperature resistance. Daily cleaning with aggressive cleaning agents and high pressure are therefore not a problem, since plastic bearing bushes from igus do not require any additional lubricants that would otherwise be washed out during cleaning.
high temperature bearing for heavy machinery

Suitable for high loads

Our plastic plain bearing bushes are used e. g., in construction and agricultural machinery. In both cases, very robust plain bearing materials are required that can withstand not only dirt but also high loads. For this purpose, we offer on the one hand self-lubricating plain bearings made from our iglidur materials and for exceptionally demanding cases igutex plain bearings, which are reinforced with high-strength fibre-glass fabric.
