iglidur TX2 plain bearings

Heavy-duty & cost-effective

iglidur® TX2 - new fabric bushings made of high-strength filament fabric

The new iglide® TX2 plain bushings were developed for use in particularly highly loaded bearing locations. Due to its incorporated solid lubricants, the high-strength, wound construction ensures for a low-friction and maintenance-free operation - entirely without external lubrication.   

Tech up

Tech up

  • Particularly low wear in the heavy-duty area
  • Up to 3.5 times more wear-resistant than iglidur TX1
Cost down

Cost down

  • Maintenance-free properties reduce costs for lubrication and maintenance
  • Cost-effective even in high dimensions and low volumes
Proof

Proof

  • Tested in our own test rigs inside and outside.
  • Test parameters: 50°pivoting movement, shaft Cf53 hard-chrome, p = 100N/mm², v = 0.01m/s
Sustainability

Sustainability

  • Environmentally friendly as no additional lubricants needed
  • Good coefficient of wear and therefore a long service life
igus supports the circular economy of plastics and is investing in chemical recycling. 


Bearings in dirty environments

For especially high loads

This is what we have developed iglidur TX2 plain bearings for:

Where injection-moulded plain bearings fail due to extreme mechanical loads, wound bushings play to their strengths. The extremely strong filament allows for maximum resistance with its special, interwoven design. At the same time, no additional grease lubrication is required thanks to the incorporated lubricants.  
 
iglidur TX2 fabric bushings are particularly well-suited for agricultural machines and vehicles, the construction industry and mining. Wherever there are high loads, and corrosion-free and dirt-resistant bearings are required.  




Coiled plain bearing for high load capacity

The tribo plain bearings made of high-strength filament fabric are used where very high loads occur. Here, the extremely strong filament in its specially interwoven design ensures the highest resistance and enables a maximum permissible compressive strength of 400MPa. The newly developed material was extensively tested at the indoor and outdoor test rigs in the 3,800 square metre igus test laboratory.
