iglidur® GLW | Low-cost material for large volumesWith plain bearings made of the material iglidur® GLW, we can offer our customers an alternative to iglidur® G for large series applications. Featuring similar mechanical design as iglidur® G, iglidur® GLW plain bearings are primarily recommended for static loads. For these applications, the dynamic properties of iglidur® G are unimportant to a degree and iglidur® GLW presents a cost-effective alternative.

Use our filter options to find the suitable productTolerances and measuring systemThe installation dimensions and tolerances of the iglidur® plain bearings depend on the material and wall thickness. 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 methodsAssemblyiglidur® plain bearings are press-fit bearings. The inner diameter is only adjusted to the appropriate tolerance after pressing into the housing hole. 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 thus reliably avoided.
