iglidur^® J plain bearings may be used for long-life applications, and are also suitable for use with soft shafts. The iglidur^® J plain bearings are designed to provide the lowest coefficient of friction while running dry, and offer a low stick-slip tendency.

Waterproof material
Extremely low friction
Can be used with stainless steel or anodised aluminium shafts
Resistant to dirt and dust
No lubrication required

iglidur^® J plain bearings are not suitable for use where a maximum permissible surface pressure of 35 MPa may occur, where high pressures may be present, where there are short-term temperature increases (above 120°C), or applications where a low-cost bearing for occasional movement is required.

The Igus J series plain bearing with a flange are standard bearings for shafts with h-tolerance (recommended minimum h9). The bearings are designed for press-fitting in a housing with H7 tolerance. After the bearing has been installed in a housing with nominal dimensions, the inner diameter of the bearing automatically adjusts itself in accordance with the specified E10 tolerance.

Excellent wear resistance at room temperature
Very good wear resistance at medium temperatures
Excellent friction coefficients
Low moisture absorption
High media resistance
Resistant to edge pressure
