Plain bearing application examples

Our iglidur plain bearings are problem solvers in a wide range of industries. They make sure that bearing points don't require maintenance or lubrication and that they are extremely robust. But that is not all. With our numerous self-developed iglidur materials, we also offer plain bearings for food contact, with chemical resistance or for use in high-load applications, just to name a few. Be inspired by a variety of plain-bearing applications and contact us if you have questions.
