Discover the Zero Lubrication igubal® Insert Bearing for Industrial Use

Innovative Maintenance-free Tensioning Bearings for Modern Equipment


igubal® Insert Bearings offer a high-performance, maintenance-free alternative to traditional metal bearings. Constructed from advanced polymers, these bearings are 80% lighter and up to 40% more cost-effective than metal counterparts. Their self-lubricating nature eliminates the need for external lubrication, making them ideal for applications where maintenance is challenging or costly. Additionally, igubal® Insert Bearings are resistant to dirt and corrosion, ensuring long-lasting durability and reliability in various industrial environments.

Available in a variety of advanced plastic materials, these tensioning bearings can be tailored to meet diverse industrial specifications and performance criteria. The inclusion of E and K dimensional series broadens the scope of compatible applications. Furthermore, the precision of the bearings’ inner diameter adheres to E10 standards, ensuring compatibility with shafts that have h6 to h9 tolerance ranges.




Spherical insert bearings for metallic pillow block and fixed flange bearings

Due to their corrosion resistance and insensitivity to dirt and dust, these spherical balls can increase the operating times of your applications: The service life is up to 8- times higher even in dirty surroundings than with ball bearings.
