Water, dust, dirt: plain bearings in farm loaders under extreme environmental conditions

Articulated, telescopic or lift loaders: plastic-bearing extend service life in outdoor use.

Profile

  • What was needed: iglidur® G plastic bearing
  • Requirements: Changing environmental conditions, constant contact with water, dust, dirt and various chemicals as well as heavy impact loads
  • Sector: Agricultural industry, agricultural machinery manufacturing
  • Success for the customer: The iglidur® plain bearings are maintenance and lubrication-free, insensitive to dust and dirt and extremely robust; overall, the service life of the bearing points in the farm loaders could be significantly extended; unlike metallic bushings, the plastic plain bearings do not have to be reground after painting, which saves the customer time and money

Problem

Solution

Previously, the bushings had to be individually reground after painting [...] Thanks to the use of iglidur® plain bearings, this work step is now no longer necessary.
