Reliable tilting
These cylinders are used in the lifting mechanism of tipper vehicles. Metal bearings have been
used for this application up to now. However, the damp and dirty working environment the
vehicles have to cope with on construction sites or in agricultural applications led repeatedly
to problems caused by rusty bearings. For this reason, the metal bearings have now been
replaced by particularly sturdy, lubricant-free and durable iglidur® bearings from igus® which
can even withstand heavy jolts and blows.
