iglidur® AX500, sleeve bearing with flange, mm - AX500FM

iglidur® AX500 | conductive material for high temperatures and food contact
The special feature of iglidur AX500 is that it is a conductive material. In addition, AX500 has an even lower coefficient of wear than its predecessor. The material was specially developed for the food industry and can therefore be used in contact with food products.

Tolerances and measuring system
The installation heights and tolerances of the iglidur® plain bearings depend on the material and wall thickness. Moisture absorption and thermal expansion are decisive for the material. Plain bearings with low moisture absorption can be installed with a small bearing clearance. The following applies to the wall thickness: The thicker the bearings, the greater the bearing clearance must be.
Test procedure

Assembly
iglidur® plain bearings are press-fit bearings. The inner diameter is only set with the corresponding tolerance after press-fitting into the housing bore. The press-fit interference can be up to 2% of the inner diameter. This ensures a secure press fit of the bearings. Axial or radial displacements in the housing are thus reliably avoided.
