There is hardly a vehicle around today that does not have plastic plain bearings in place of metallic, plain and rolling bearings.





The spectrum ranges from simple seating system applications to mechanical applications under a high thermal load in the engine compartment, in gear boxes or in the exhaust systems of modern diesel engines, for example.

Available in Australia through Treotham Trading , igus lubricant-free and maintenance-free plastic bearings reduce weight, extend service life and lead to expected cost savings of up to 70%.

For example, users can replace needle bearings by plastic bushes in the engine compartment. The same is true for applications in brakes, steering, engine compartments and many other important areas on vehicles.
