By entering application parameters in the iglide® plain bearings expert, you can find the matching plain bearings as well as calculate their expected service life with a few clicks.

With just 4 mandatory fields, the iglide® plain bearings expert can provide you a reliable statement about the suitability and the expected service life of the iglide® plain bearings in your application. Optionally, you also have the choice to specify additional parameters to describe your application in detail. In the first step the input on requirements such as design, dimensions, loads and temperatures is made. You can then enter the required information on motion type and speed. Likewise, the plain bearings for use in intermittent duty can be selected. In the last step, the selection of the shaft material and the used housing is made from a list. As a result the found iglide® plain bearings are sorted according to the calculated service life or listed by price. Displayed for this purpose are matching shafts from igus®, which can also be ordered directly. The configuration can be saved. In addition, you can create a PDF report and download the plain bearings in the igus® CAD. You also have the option to send a request or order samples.
