R spherical ball, low-cost material

igubal® spherical cap R | Low-cost material, low coefficients of friction

In the development of iglidur® R as a bearing material, the focus was on high performance and a very low price. In particular, low friction and wear values were to be achieved in dry running. Bearings made of iglidur® R are specifically supported by a combination of solid lubricants. The PTFE and silicone-free material achieves outstandingly low friction values in dry running and runs largely stick-slip-free.

Material properties

• Good abrasion resistance
