iglidur® ECO G, sleeve bearing, mm - ECOGSM

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

This material is based on the best-selling iglide® G material and is suitable for a wide range of applications. iglide® ECO-G is resistant to high loads and is suitable for applications at medium-high temperatures and surface speeds. It has an excellent coefficient of friction and is resistant to edge pressure, shocks and impacts. It is particularly resistant to dirt and dust, as well as high loads. iglide® ECO-G is sustainable due to the reuse of raw materials.

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.
