Self-aligning plastic bearings replace metal

In this new video from Igus, igubal self-aligning bearings are on show. Grease-free, lightweight and in stock, Igus says they are ready to exchange for your metal bearings.

Grease, says Igus, is a thing of the past. It’s a dirty and costly way of lubricating your bearings and moving parts. In the future it will be outed as the combustion engine of the mechanical work and users will be searching for that new and efficient way of keeping production lines and other equipment running.

But you don’t need to wait. For example, Igus says using lubrication-free alternative bearings in conveyor applications ensures a clean, smooth application. The igubal range is dimensionally the same as many traditional bearings used on conveyors, which means you can change your metal ones for a longer, cleaner service life.
