iglidur® A200, Sleeve bearings, imperial

iglidur® A200 | FDA-compliant for low speeds

The material iglidur® A200 is suitable for use in direct contact with food. It is therefore the ideal solution for bearing points on machines for the food industry, medical device construction, small household appliances, etc. Since the admixture of solid lubricants had to be dispensed with in favour of food compatibility, the thermoplastic alloy of iglidur® A200 is particularly adapted to abrasion resistance. Furthermore, iglidur® A200 is characterised by its ability to embed dirt and its smooth running behaviour.
