What can iglidur® materials for high temperatures do?

What can these materials do?

Here you will find high-temperature specialists for continuous operating temperatures up to +250 °C (exception: iglidur® V400 with +200 °C). In the meantime, the iglidur® X6 surpasses the standard iglidur® X here in many rotating and pivoting applications. iglidur® Z has also been long established as standard with extremely low wear rates under high loads and/or temperatures. iglidur® V400 is characterised as a problem solver in many special cases, and iglidur® UW500 is the specialist for hot liquids.

Like all iglidur® materials, high-temperature specialists have the following specifications:
