iglide® H1 | Endurance runner with high media resistance
 

• High wear resistance in extreme ambient conditions
• Very low coefficient of friction
• High resistance to temperature and chemicals
• For under bonnet applications
• Lubrication and maintenance-free
• Standard range from stock

iglide® H1 is the first choice when long life is required in extreme environmental conditions. Extreme wear resistance is coupled with excellent resistance to temperature and chemicals – not only in the packaging and foodstuff industries or the automotive industry.
 
Typical application areas

Beverage production & packaging
Vending machines
Packaging
Textile manufacturing

You will find plenty of additional application areas at our Industry solutions
 
 

When to use it? When extreme service life is required under the influence of temperature and humidity When low coefficients of friction at high temperature are important When normal aggressive cleaning is required (splashes, steam blasting) When the bearings are used in the engine compartment

When not to use? When high surface pressures occur When the best universal chemical resistance is required When a cost-effective high temperature bearing is required, not the ideal wear resistance When an FDA-compliant plain bearing with high temperature resistance is required   Use our filter options to find the most suitable product

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.
Testing methods
 
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.
