Lightweight bearings and cable guides for reliable movement in the car

Our bearings and cable guides made of high-performance plastic score points with their low weight and quiet running. This also makes them ideal for use in electric vehicles in particular, where the lightest components that cause as little interference noise/BSR as possible are required.

Thanks to incorporated solid lubricants, the operation of our sliding bushes, linear guides and coupling joints is completely maintenance-free. They withstand high temperatures, vibrations and shocks, are insensitive to dirt and corrosion-free.

Our compact energy chains ensure a reliable energy supply for the increasing number of electrically controlled functions in vehicles - in sliding doors or seat adjustments, for example. In confined installation spaces, they reliably guide the moving power and signal cables over countless cycles.

Focus on PFAS: Planned restrictions, challenges and solutions for the industry

What exactly are PFAS and why are they so popular in industry and the consumer sector? Why is there an impending EU-wide ban and what can companies do now?
The white paper sheds light on these issues and shows how igus, as a plastics processor, can counter the planned restriction at an early stage and offer its customers alternatives and products tested for PFAS.

Why you should use iglidur plain bearings in automobiles

With iglidur plain bearings, costs can be reduced by up to 40%. Weight is reduced by up to 80% and, as a consequence, CO2 emissions are lowered. Moreover, the bearings operate very quietly, compensate for manufacturing tolerances and can be inserted into sheet metal quickly and easily thanks to flexible assembly concepts.
