Each shut-off valve consists of an actuator and an actuator element (= valve). Their high chemical resistance and freedom from maintenance ensure our products are ideal for the use in valve technology.

Whether coolant pump in the car or washing water pump in the dishwasher: iglidur plain bearings are resistant to chemicals and withstand high sliding speeds of up to 6,500rpm when used in the medium.

There are meters for water and gas in every household. igus components such as gears, plain bearings or coupling rods can be installed. With special materials, including for underwater use, we find solutions for every application.

Whether gas spring, hydraulic or pneumatic cylinder: with iglidur guide rings and plain bearings, low-clearance piston guides can be achieved under almost all conditions.

Valve

• Chemical-resistant plain bearings and guide rings e. g. made of iglidur H370 for vertical piston guide
• Patented lead screw geometry and temperature-resistant lead screw nut e. g. made of iglidur J350 for vertical drive of the shut-off body

Slider

• Dirt-resistant plain bearing and guide rings e. g. made of iglidur G for vertical piston guide
• Patented lead screw geometry and chemical-resistant lead screw nut made of e. g. iglidur J350 for vertical drive of the shut-off body

Tap

• Food-compatible plain bearings or sliding plates e. g. made of iglidur A350 for rotary motion of the ball valve
• Special sliding ring and thrust washer for guiding and sealing the ball

Shut-off/throttle damper

• iglidur Q plain bearing for high dynamic loads in the pivot points of the flaps
• Optimised for pivoting movements of the flap

Linear drive

• Lubrication-free plain bearings e. g. made of iglidur G for shaft bearings
• Noise dampening plastic gears e. g. made of iguform S270 for transmission in the gearbox
• drylin SHT lead screw linear systems for vertical movement also available in special shapes

Rotary drive

• Lubrication-free plain bearings e. g. made of iglidur G for shaft bearings
• Noise dampening plastic gears e. g. made of iguform S270 for transmission in the gearbox
• drylin SHT lead screw linear systems for vertical movement also available in special shapes

Wet running pumps

• Media-resistant plain bearings e. g. made of iglidur H3 for the bearing of the drive shaft
• Rotation in a medium (water, oil, etc.) makes revolutions of up to 6,500 rpm possible

Vertical pump

• Sewage-resistant plain bearings e. g. made of iglidur UW for the bearing of the drive shaft
• Short-term high speed of up to 2m/s possible in unlubricated condition

Roller pumps

• Media-resistant knife edge rollers e. g. made of iglidur H1 for rotation
• xiros guide rollers with very low break-away torque for rolling motion

Water meters

• With a plain bearing made of iglidur UW160, the bucket wheel "floats" on the bearing point. Minimal friction, as UW160 has the same density as water.
• xiros ball bearing with glass balls for smooth-running, corrosion-free bearing of the impeller wheel
• Cost-effective production of the entire bucket wheel by injection moulding
• Low-wear plastic gears and plain bearing in the gearbox

Gas meter

• Lubrication-free plain bearings e. g. made of iglidur G in the pump mechanism of the counter
• Customised coupling joints for the transmission of forces in the gearbox
• Low-wear plastic gears in transmission

Hydraulic cylinder

• Heavy-duty and oil-resistant guide rings or plain bearings e. g. made of iglidur Q for guiding the piston
• iglidur SG03"] plain bearings sealed against dirt [Link url="/product/20455" title=" in the pivot point of the cylinders
• igubal spherical ball with spherical compensation as lubrication-free insert in cylinder pivot point

Pneumatic cylinder

• Wear-optimised plain bearings and guide rings e. g. made of iglidur G for guiding the piston
• drylin R shafts made of aluminium, steel or stainless steel can be used as pistons
• igubal KBRM rod ends can be combined with the shaft to achieve spherical compensation at the connection

Gas strut

• Heavy-duty plain bearings with flange e. g. made of iglidur H4 for guiding the piston
• Therefore no end caps required igubal GERM clevis joint with pin as connection of the gas spring
• igubal WGRM angled ball and socket joint as connection of the gas spring

Dampers are used to control, regulate and measure airflows in HVAC systems. As igus components are characterised by a long service life and resistance to corrosion, they are popular for damper applications.

Fans are used to move the air within HVAC systems. We offer lubricant-free bearing options with high-speed plain bearings and xiros plastic ball bearings.

• Moisture-resistant clip bearings and plain bearings e. g. made of iglidur G in the pivot points of the flaps
• Low-wear plastic gears for control of the flaps
• Customised coupling joints for the transmission of forces in the gearbox

Control unit

• iglidur Q plain bearing for high dynamic loads in the pivot points of the flaps
