“Since its introduction, iglidur A181 proves to be a real all-rounder in this industry,” said Robert Dumayne, dry-tech director, igus. “In bottling and packaging plants, in particular, this high-performance, blue plastic is ideally suited for rotary as well as pivoting movement - in particular for stainless steel shafts.”
In addition to standard bearing dimensions, iglidur A181 is now offered in 14 different bar stock sizes, so prototypes and small batch production are possible. Alongside this, igus can produce special, custom parts for the food and packaging industry, where there are any requirements for low friction components.
