igubal® bearing elements can be used without problems even in harsh environments and are maintenance-free. They are corrosion-resistant in humid environments. The operating temperature is from -30°C to +80°C. Seals are not necessary, even in extremely contaminated conditions. This is true for fine dust as well as coarse dirt.
Every year, igus® engineers develop more than 100 new plastic compounds and conduct more than 3500 tests on maintenance-free plain bearings every year, and thus over the years has established a large database of polymers' tribological properties.

Each machine contains 69 igubal® fl ange bearings, which were chosen on account of their corrosion resistance, lubricant freedom and space-saving design.
The prototype of the „Sunseeker Duo“ solar plane is the world‘s first solar-powered two-seater.
Previously, metal bearings and linear guides were used, which rusted quickly and therefore required frequent maintenance.
The screwconveyer of the gritting unit has to be mounted movable in order to compensate axial offset and dynamic movements in the screw.
This motor is to drive deep-sea robots even at 6,000 metres under the sea.
igus® thrust washers and flange bearings were used for the new design. They made the elaborate milling of the base plate unnecessary.
