igubal Bearings
igubal self-aligning maintenance-free plain bearings made of high-performance plastics

Bearings

igubal puts a complete system of self-aligning bearing elements spherical bearings, pillow block spherical bearings and rod end bearings at the developers fingertips. Self-aligning bearings are easy to install, adapt to all angular deviations and replace special housings in many cases. With igubal, the user can take advantage of all the benefits of high-performance plastics: vibration dampening, ability to operate in liquids or chemicals, and resistance to dirt and dust which can impede the performance of greased metal components. They are very lightweight: 80% lighter than steel. They save on installation space because of their small dimensions, and can save on cost at the time of purchase and in operation. igubal bearings are also extremely cost competitive due to the elimination of maintenance and installation costs. Some models of the igubal product line

igubal Spherical Balls


In the igubal K series the standard spherical ball is made out of iglide L280 material. In the igubal E series the standard spherical ball is made out of either the iglide L280 or the iglide R material. Additionally, the design of the igubal E series allows for specials to be made in any of the iglide materials to utilize their unique advantages. Spherical balls made from the iglide L280 material are known for its low coefficient of friction while running dry and extremely low tendency to stick-slip. This is especially important for low loads and very slow movements. Spherical balls made from the iglide R material offer a cost advantage and low moisture absorption while still maintaining a low coefficient of friction.

Coefficients of Sliding Friction and Speed


One important advantage of igubal spherical bearings is that rapid, rotary movements of a mounted shaft take place directly in the spherical portion. In metallic rod ends, rotary motion takes place between the race and the spherical bearing. High speeds can be achieved with igubal bearings. igubal bearings are used in such a way that the angular movements of the spherical bearings takes place at the outer diameter. In contrast, rotations of the shaft are supported directly in the I.D. of the spherical portion. The advantage, therefore, lies in the plastic vs. steel relationship. Plastic produces lower friction and permits high speeds, even when running dry.

Application Temperatures
igubal bearing elements can be used in temperatures from -22 to 176F. The chart shows the effect of temperature on the loading capacity of the igubal bearing elements.

Chemical Resistance
Both the spherical ball made of iglide L280 and the housing made of igumid G are resistant to weak lyes, weak acids and fuels, as well as all types of lubricants. You will find a chemicals table starting on Page 1.16. The moisture absorption of igubal with iglide L280 is approximately 1.3% of weight in standard atmosphere. The saturation limit in water is 6.5%. The moisture absorption of igubal with iglide R is approximately .2% of weight in standard atmosphere. The saturation in water is 1.1%. This must be taken into account for these types of applications.

The load capacity of the maintenance-free igubal bearing elements is very high at normal ambient temperatures. igubal bearing elements absorb high forces and weigh only a fifth of traditional, metal bearing housings. The excellent dampening properties are based on the fact that the plastic material of the two-part bearing can absorb vibrations differently than steel. However, plastic-specific properties, such as temperature and behavior under long-time stressing, must be taken into consideration when using igubal bearings. The load capacity should therefore be checked in a performance test, particularly if they are to be used under continuous high loads and at elevated temperatures.

Radiation Resistance
igubal Bearings
Self-aligning igubal plain bearings are resistant to radiation up to an intensity of 3 x 102 Gy.

UV Resistance
The corrosion resistance of the igubal bearings give them special value for outside applications. igubal bearing elements are permanently resistant to UV radiation. A small change in color (dark coloration) of the spherical ball due to UV radiation does not effect the mechanical, electrical or thermal properties.

Areas of Application
igubal bearing elements can be used without problems even in harsh environments. In moist or wet environments, the bearings are corrosion-resistant, and resistant to weak acids and lyes. The application temperatures range from -22 to 176F. Resistance to dirt and dust is outstanding. Seals are not necessary, even in extremely contaminated conditions. This is true for fine dust as well as coarse dirt, which is present in agricultural equipment. The housing is made of an impact-resistant composite material which tolerates high alternating loads.

igubal Pillow Block Bearing



Maintenance-free, self-lubricating High strength under impact loads High tensile strength Compensation for alignment errors Chemical resistant Lightweight

igubal Pillow Block Bearing

igubal Pillow Block

igubal Pillow Block Bearings are bearing elements that are especially easy to install, able to compensate for alignment errors and prevent edge loads.

Structure of Part Numbers for igubal Pillow Block Bearings


The part numbers of igubal pillow block bearings are designed according to the following system: K ST M - 08

Dimensional Series K = dimensional series K

1-888-803-1895 1-401-438-7680

Product Range
igubal pillow block bearings can be obtained in the standard dimensions for IDs of .1900 to 1.00 and for metric sizes of 5mm to 50 mm.

Design ST = Pillow Block Measuring System M = metric I = inches Nominal dimension of the inside diameter

Telephone Fax

Areas of Application
The ability to pivot allows igubal pillow block bearings to compensate for misalignment and possible shaft deflection. Applications in which these effects cannot be prevented are suited for igubal pillow block bearings.

The example shows a pillow block bearing of the dimensional series K with metric dimensions. The spherical ball has an inner diameter of 8 mm.

Tolerances
Maintenance-free igubal pillow block bearings are designed with a tolerance in the inner diameter according to E10. The shaft should have a tolerance of H6 and h9. The recommended tolerances allow for changes in the bearing due to temperature. Tolerance Table, Page 1.14

Internet: http://www.igus.com E-Mail: sales@igus.com QuickSpec: www.igus.com/qs/igubal.asp

Mounting
igubal pillow block bearings are designed for mounting with 2 bolts. Precision mounting of the bearing is not necessary, since the spherical ball compensates for alignment errors.

igubal Flange Bearing

Areas of Application
Since igubal flange bearings are made for maintenance-free use, they are especially suited for applications in which access to the bearing is limited, in moist or wet environments or cleanroom environments. Thus, igubal flange bearings are also found in electric toothbrushes, awnings, conveyor technology, bakery machines and agriculture.

Structure for Part Numbers for igubal Flange Bearings


The part numbers of igubal flange bearings are designed according to the following system: E F O M - 10

Telephone Fax

Installation
igubal flange bearings are designed for mounting with 2 or 4 bolts, depending on the design. The 2-hole types are provided with elongated holes, which allow a problem-free adjustment. An exact positioning of the bearing housing is not necessary, since the spherical ball compensates for alignment errors.

Dimensional Series E = dimensional series E Design F = Flange Bearing Housing O = 2-hole S = 4-hole Measuring System M = metric I = inches Nominal dimension of the inner diameter The example shows a metric 2-hole flange bearing of the dimensional series E with a spherical ball inner diameter of 10 mm.

Product Range
Internet: http://www.igus.com E-Mail: sales@igus.com QuickSpec: www.igus.com/qs/igubal.asp
igubal flange bearings with 2 and 4 mounting holes can be obtained in the standard dimensions with IDs of .190 to 1.50 and metric sizes of 5 to 30 mm. Please ask about additional dimensions.

The use of pivoting bearings is usually associated with high weight materials, difficult installation, and high costs. Most of the time, maintenance is still necessary over the long term, and the bearings are only corrosion-resistant in special designs. Often roller bearings or plain bearings malfunction prematurely due to high edge loads, or bearings must be readjusted, reamed, or retrofit in order to compensate for alignment errors. igubal pivoting bearings put an end to all of these disadvantages and open up many new possibilities for your engineering design. igubal Pivoting Bearings are: G easy to install G exceptionally cost-effective G lightweight G high strength

Structure for the part numbers for igubal pivoting bearings


The part numbers of igubal pivoting bearings are designed according to the following system: K GL M - 08

Ease of installation makes diverse applications possible for igubal pivoting bearings. They can be used anywhere the self-adjusting feature offers design advantages or helps to simplify assembly.

Tolerances
Maintenance-free igubal pivoting bearings are meant to be oversized before being pressfit. After proper installation into a recommended housing bore, the inner diameter adjusts to meet our specified tolerances. Please adhere to the catalog specifications for housing bore and recommended shaft sizes. This will help to ensure optimal performance of iglide plain bearings. Please contact an iglide technical expert for support. Tolerance Table, Page 1.14

Installation
igubal pivoting bearings are pressfit into a recommended housing bore and axially secured. An exact orientation of the bearing housing is not necessary, since the pivoting bearing compensates for alignment errors.

1-888-803-1895 1-401-438-7680

The self-adjusting igubal spherical thrust bearings are very easy to install and help to compensate for alignment errors and prevent edge loads. The housing pad is made of the impact-resistant, thermoplastic composite material igumid G. The spherical disk is made to the same standard as iglide L280 plain bearings. This combination produces especially good friction and wear properties.

Structure for part numbers for igubal spherical thrust bearings


The part numbers of igubal spherical thrust bearings are designed according to the following system: SA M - 16

Loads
The loading capacity of igubal spherical thrust bearings is very high for standard ambient temperatures. For high continuous loads and high temperatures, the loading capacity of the thrust bearings should be tested to your application requirements in an experiment that duplicates the application.

Telephone Fax

Design SA = Spherical thrust bearing Measuring System M = metric Nominal dimension of the inner diameter

Coefficients of Friction and Speeds


Taking into account the radial load, maximum surface speeds up to 98 fpm rotating are possible.

The example shows a spherical thrust bearing with metric dimensions and an inner diameter of 16mm.

Internet: http://www.igus.com E-Mail: sales@igus.com QuickSpec: www.igus.com/qs/igubal.asp

Installation
The housing pad is installed so that it is countersunk and secured. The spherical washer is loosely fitted in the socket and is held in place by the shaft that is placed into the bearing.

Product Range
igubal spherical thrust bearings are provided as standards in dimensions from 5 to 20 mm. Please contact us if you need other dimensions
