iglidur® R, sleeve bearing, imperial - RSI

iglidur® R | Low-cost material, low coefficient of friction

During the development of iglidur® R, the focus was on high performance and a very low price. In particular, low coefficients of friction and wear were to be achieved in dry operation. Components made of iglidur® R are specifically supported by a combination of solid lubricants. The PTFE-free and silicone-free material achieves outstandingly low coefficients of friction in dry operation and runs largely stick-slip-free.

Typical application areas

• Motorcycle / scooter
• Furniture / Industrial design

Sport, fitness & rehab

When do I use it?

• If high wear resistance at low load is required
• If you are looking for a very reasonably priced material
• If a very low coefficient of friction is required in dry operation
• If edge loads occur
• If low moisture absorption is desired
• If PTFE or silicone are not approved for the application

When not to use it?

• If high pressure loads occur
• If temperatures are continuously higher than +90°C
• If the best possible wear resistance is required
