iglidur® H | High temperature and chemical resistance - Can be used underwater
- For high temperatures
- Chemical resistance
- Complies with the fire prevention requirements of the Federal Aviation Administration of the USA (FAA) for aircraft interiors
iglidur® H is a fibre-reinforced thermoplastic material developed for applications in high atmospheric humidity or underwater. Plain bearings made from iglidur® H can be used completely free of lubrication; in wet applications, the surrounding media acts as additional lubricant. Suitable for temperatures up to +200°C. Very low coefficient of friction when used with hardened shafts.

Use our filter options to find the suitable product Tolerances and measuring systemThe installation height and tolerances of iglidur® plain bearings are dependent on the material and wall thicknesses. For each material, the moisture absorption and the thermal expansion are decisive factors. Plain bearings with low moisture absorption can be designed with a minimal bearing clearance. The rule of thumb for wall thickness: the thicker the wall of the bearings, the larger the clearances must be.
Testing methods Assemblyiglidur® plain bearings are press-fit bearings. The inner diameter adjusts only after press-fitting into the correctly toleranced housing hole. The press-fit interference can be up to 2% of the inner diameter. This ensures that the bearing is securely press-fitted. Axial or radial movement in the housing are also prevented in this way.
