Linear bearings are self-lubricating and maintenance free
Polymer specialist igus makes motion without lubrication possible; self-lubricating and maintenance free, dry-tech linear bearings are ideal wherever an oil-free environment is a top priority, from the food and drink sector to medical industries.
>Resistant to dirt, water and chemicals, the dry-tech range is rugged and durable, in line with the igus 'plastics for longer life' mantra. In addition, linear bearings from igus are free from the mass inertia of rolling objects or balls and thus able to endure high speeds of up to 10 m/s and accelerations of up to 100G whilst ensuring quiet running.
>Finally, dry-tech is a cost-conscious solution that has been carefully developed by igus to help designers and engineers save time and money. Like all other plastic solutions, linear bearings are readily available from igus within 24 hours.
