igubal® rod end bearings

Special properties of the igubal® rod end bearings

Tolerances

igubal rod end bearings can be used, according to the application, with different tolerances. They are designed with a large clearance in the standard product, which enables a secure operation even under high peripheral speeds. The bore of the inner ring has a tolerance according to E10. The shafts should have a tolerance between h6 and h9.
Please contact us in case you require lower or more bearing tolerances.

Loads

igubal® rod end bearings take high forces in normal ambient temperatures, have excellent dampening properties and weigh only a fifth of the conventional metallic bearing housing.
In particular cases the load carrying capacity of the rod end bearings should be checked in a practical trial especially with high constant loads and at higher temperatures.

Coefficients of surface friction and speeds

Rotary motions of the mounted shaft take place directly in the bearing ball made of iglidur® W300. The advantage of this plastic/steel plain bearing is that high speeds can be achieved in dry operation. Taking the radial loads into account, maximum surface speeds up to 0.5 m/s rotating can be attained.

The maintenance-free igubal® rod end bearings casually permit linear and oscillating movements of the shaft.

Delivery program

igubal® rod end bearings are available in the dimensional series K and E for shaft diameters of 2 to 30 mm in all dimensions according to DIN ISO 12240, and of course respectively in the

The dimensional series L is moreover available in inch dimensions and - as special version - with a stainless steel sleeve in the spherical ball. Thereby an essentially higher tightening torque is possible than with the plastic ball.
