Plain bearings iglidur® A160

iglidur® A160 is FDA and EU regulation compliant for chemicals and food

iglidur® A160 plain bearings are characterised by extreme media resistance at low costs. Tribologically optimised, the material can be used in temperatures up to +90°C and also conforms to demands of the food processing sector. The profile of properties is completed by the "optical detectability", i.e. the blue colour, often required in the industry.
