drylin® Linear plain bearings Application examples

drylin® linear plain bearings work, in contrast to the known recirculating ball bearing systems, on sliding elements. These sliding elements made of high-performance polymers can in principle be manufactured from all iglidur® materials. This means that the drylin® linear technology has the advantages of all the different iglidur® bearing materials at its disposal. For most applications in the linear area, however, iglidur® J is best suited due to its wear and friction properties. This is why drylin® linear plain bearings are equipped with this material. This application overview shows you the most diverse areas of application for maintenance-free linear guidance systems from the drylin® programme.
