iglide® ECO-A180, flange bearing, mm

iglide® ECO-A180 | Eco-friendly version of iglide® A180

iglide® ECO-A180 is sustainable due to the reuse of already-processed raw materials. It features low moisture absorption, high media resistance, and is resistant to edge pressure, shocks & impacts, and dirt/dust.

Tolerances and measurement system

The installation dimensions and tolerances of the iglide® plain bearings are a function of the material and wall thicknesses. For each material, the moisture absorption and the thermal expansion are imperative. Plain bearings with low moisture absorption can be designed with a minimal amount of tolerance. For wall thickness, the rule is: The thicker the bearings are, the larger the tolerances must be.

Assembly

iglide® bearings are press-fit bearings. The inner diameter adjusts only after press-fit in the proper housing bore with a recommended tolerance. The before press-fit oversized dimension can be up to 2% of the inner diameter. In this manner, the secure press-fitting of the bearing is achieved. Axial or radial shifts in the housing are also prevented.
