iglidur® A180 | The FDA-compliant all-rounder
 

• Completely lubrication-free belt deflection
• The iglidur® A180 material complies with food and drug administration (FDA) regulations for repeated contact with food
• Good media-resistance
• Low drive power
• Long service life of the belt
• Tight deflection radii
• For wet environments
• Good wear-resistance
• Long service life
• Lubrication-free and maintenance-free
• Standard range from stock

igus® has developed its own knife-edge rollers to deflect conveyor belts in materials handling applications. The iglidur® solution is characterised by tight radii and low required driving power. Bearings made from iglidur® A180 are suitable for application in direct contact with foodstuffs. Hence they are the ideal solution for bearing locations on machines for the food and packaging industries, the medical equipment manufacturing, for small equipment for households, etc. The iglidur® A180 distinguishes itself also in wet cleaning or where process-dependent contact with wet media is the business of the day by its extremely low humidity absorption.
