Xiros Polymer Ball Bearings

igus offers new items for the food industry – xiros polymer ball bearings. All xiros plastic ball bearings, as well as the many new line extensions share a few common traits: they are all self-lubricating, maintenance-free, and corrosion-resistant. These characteristics make xiros polymer ball bearings excellent for use in the food industry. The xirodur M180 is a new, detectable material that is lightweight and media resistant. The easy-running xiros F180 ball bearing is also ESD compliant, preventing static discharge of components due to its electrical conductivity. igus has introduced anodised aluminium balls in the product range for maintenance-free guide rollers. These are available in clear or black, and anodised versions up to 3,000 mm maximum length. The extremely versatile xirodur B180 is used as the flange ball bearing material. These, like all igus products, have been extensively tested in the company’s 1,750 sq.m test lab in order to provide reliable lifetime and performance data.
