Ready to replace your older PTFE lined bearings?

Linear plain bearings are becoming commonplace in today’s manufacturing industry. As technologies and material sciences have advanced, so have the capabilities of linear plain bearings, particularly those made of plastic, such as the drylin® series of self-lubricating linear bearings from igus®.

This whitepaper will compare how they outperform a competitive linear plain bearing technology, which uses a PTFE-based, bonded liner, in both wear and friction testing.
