Igus Igutex® TX1 Sleeve Bearing mm

igutex® TX1 | The high load bearing up to 200 MPa

• Up to 200 MPa static and 140 MPa dynamic
• Wear resistant and dimensionally stable
• Good media resistance
• Lubricant and maintenance free
• Standard program from stock

igutex® TX1 plain bearings stand for very high load carrying capacity at high radial loads paired with good abrasion resistance. On the one hand, the special design ensures high dimensional stability due to the long-fiber winding, on the other hand, lubricant- and maintenance-free operation is possible thanks to solid lubricants. High dirt and media resistance round off the property profile.

Tolerances and measuring system
The installation dimensions and tolerances of the igutex® plain bearings depend on the material and wall thickness. For each material, the moisture absorption and the thermal expansion are decisive factors. Plain bearings with low moisture absorption can be installed with a smaller bearing clearance. The rule for wall thickness: the thicker the wall of the bearings, the larger the clearances must be.
Testing methods

Assembly
igutex® plain bearings are press-fit bearings. The inner diameter is only adjusted to the appropriate tolerance after pressing into the housing hole. The press-fit excess dimension can be up to 2% of the inner diameter. This ensures the secure press-fitting of the bearings. Axial or radial movements in the housing are thus reliably avoided.
