iglidur® GLW | Low-cost material for high quantities - Applications with static loads
- Cost-effective
- Dirt-resistant
- Resistant to vibration
- Lubrication- and maintenance-free
As an alternative to iglidur® G, bearings made from iglidur® GLW material are available for high volume applications. Featuring similar mechanical properties to iglidur® G, iglidur® GLW plain bearings are recommended primarily for static loads. Where the dynamic properties of iglidur® G (to a large extent) are unimportant, iglidur® GLW presents a very cost-effective alternative.

Use our filter options to find the suitable product Tolerances and measurement systemThe installation dimensions and tolerances of iglidur® plain bearings are a function of the material and wall thicknesses. For each material, the moisture absorption and the thermal expansion are decisive factors. Plain bearings with low moisture absorption can be designed with a minimal bearing clearance. The rule for wall thickness: the thicker the wall of the bearings, the larger the clearances must be.
Testing methods Assemblyiglidur® plain bearings are press-fit bearings. The inner diameter adjusts only after press-fitting in the correctly toleranced housing. The press-fit excess dimension can be up to 2% of the inner diameter. This ensures the secure press-fitting of the bearing. Axial or radial movement in the housing are prevented this way.
