From pedals to steering, igus' bearings fit many applications
iglidur plastic bearings from polymer expert, igus, are a great fit for the automotive industry. Carefully tested in igus' high-tech laboratories, the iglidur range has been developed to live up to igus' 'plastics for longer life' mantra.
Self-lubricating and dry-running, iglidur plain plastic bearings provide the automotive industry with an effective and efficient alternative to lubricated metallic and roller bearings. A light weight material, iglidur can help car manufacturers achieve significant savings on costs and energy consumption.
Furthermore, thanks to its heat-resistant and corrosion-resistant properties, iglidur is ideally suited for a variety of automotive applications. Drivetrains, pedal mechanisms, steering systems and variable intake systems are only some of the many parts of a vehicle where iglidur can make the difference.
