igubal A180EM – the food all-rounder
The A180EM spherical insert bearing, machined from bar stock, can be used in both pillow block bearings and flanged mounted bearings. Made from the FDA-compliant high-performance plastic iglidur A180, it is ideal for applications involving direct contact with food or pharmaceuticals. iglidur A180 is characterised by high media resistance and low moisture absorption, making it particularly suitable for use in damp environments.
Thanks to the embedded solid lubricant, no additional lubrication is required, which makes operation in damp environments particularly advantageous. Our spherical insert bearings are easy to install and offer a cost-effective and lightweight alternative to a conventional metal ball bearing.
