IGUS dry-tech bearings with no lubrication

September 23, 2016 By Mike Santora

igus-dry-tech-imageMore than 50% of machine failures are caused by either too much or not enough lubrication.

igus dry-tech bearings are an alternative for lubricated plain and roller bearings. igus develops tribopolymers for continuous dry-running operation.

By avoiding lubrication, dry-tech polymer technology attains superior service life: from -148°F up to +482°F at continuous exposure, from cleanrooms to extreme dirt exposure, from vacuum to extreme humidity.

dry-tech bearing technology for:
Applications without lubrication and for long service-life
Extreme environmental conditions
Lowest possible friction and wear values in continuous and intermittent operation

dry-tech: Reduce costs with tribopolymers
More than $700 million in maintenance fees are caused annually by excessive friction and wear due to inadequate lubrication

igus-penny-bearing-imageigus dry-tech bearings reduce your costs. A direct product comparison shows that you can reduce your current costs for bearing components by as much as 50%. In addition, further cost reduction potential is attained by using non-hardened shaft materials and by avoiding seals and lubrication systems.

dry-tech bearing technology for:
Up to 50% reduced procurement costs for your bearings
Cost savings due to simpler bearings or by avoiding other bearing components
Reduced inventory levels due to short delivery times as low as 24 hrs
