Lightweight bearings and cable guides for reliable movement in the car

Our bearings and cable guides made of high-performance plastic score points with their lightweight feature and quiet running. This makes them ideal for use in e-vehicles in particular, where the lightest possible assemblies that cause as little noise/BSR as possible are required.

Thanks to incorporated solid lubricants, our plain bearings, linear guides and coupling joints are completely maintenance-free. They withstand high temperatures, vibrations and shocks and are insensitive to dirt and corrosion-free.

Our compact energy chains ensure a reliable power supply for the increasing number of electrically controlled functions in vehicles - for example in sliding doors or seat adjusters. In tight installation spaces, they reliably carry the moving power and signal cables over countless cycles.
