iglidur® AB, sleeve bearing, mm - ABSM

iglidur® AB | The first antibacterial iglidur® plain bearing
Plain bearings made of iglidur® AB help to reduce the level of bacterial contamination in bearing points that are difficult to access. iglidur® AB was specifically developed for applications in areas with high hygiene requirements. Often such applications are manually operated pivots (doors, medical furniture, etc.). The material reduces the level of bacterial contamination but - like all "anti-bacterial" materials - is not a substitute for adequate hygienic measures.

Typical application areas

• Medical technology
• Laboratory technology
• Ventilation systems
• Sanitary furniture and equipment
• Bearings of patient and care furniture

When to use it? When bearing points must meet hygienic standards When a universal plain bearing for manual applications is required When a plain bearing for low to medium loads is required

When not to use it? When a very wear-resistant bearing for continuous operation in dry operation is required iglidur® J3, sleeve bearing, mm When a bearing in compliance with the EU regulation 10/2011 EC and/or according to FDA requirements for repeated food contact is sought iglidur® A181, sleeve bearing, mmiglidur® A350, sleeve bearing, mm When a bearing with the highest universal media resistance is sought iglidur® X, sleeve bearing, mm

Tolerances and measuring system
The installation dimensions and tolerances of the iglidur® bearings depend on the material and wall thickness. Moisture absorption and thermal expansion are decisive for the material. Plain bearings with low moisture absorption can be designed with a minimal amount of bearing clearance. The following applies to the wall thickness: the thicker the bearings, the greater the bearing clearance must be.
Test procedure
Installation
iglidur® plain bearings are press-fit bearings. The inner diameter is only adjusted to the appropriate tolerance after pressing into the housing bore. The press-fit interference can be up to 2% of the inside diameter. This ensures the secure press-fitting of the bearing. Axial or radial displacements in the housing are thus reliably avoided.
