iglidur® N54 | The biopolymer based on renewable raw materials iglidur® N54 is the first iglidur® material that is largely based on biopolymers. In addition to the fact that all iglidur® materials are lubrication-free , this is a further step towards a positive environmental balance. The low coefficient of friction in conjunction with long service life ensure that this material has a permanent place in the iglidur® product range.

For each material, the moisture absorption and the thermal expansion are decisive factors. Plain bearings with low moisture absorption can be installed with a smaller bearing clearance. The rule for wall thickness: the thicker the wall of the bearings, the larger the clearances must be.
Testing methodsAssembly iglidur® plain bearings are press-fit bearings. The inner diameter is only adjusted to the appropriate tolerance after pressing into the housing. The press-fit excess dimension can be up to 2% of the inner diameter. This ensures the secure press-fitting of the bearings. Axial or radial movements in the housing are reliably avoided.
