Grease is the dirty and costly way of lubricating bearings and moving parts, states igus
'Metal out, igubal in!', is the mantra from igus. “In the future, it will be outed, as the combustion engine of the mechanical work and users will be searching for that new and efficient way of keeping production lines and other equipment running. You don’t need to wait.
“Using lubrication-free alternative bearings in conveyor applications ensures a clean, smooth application. The igubal range is dimensionally the same as many traditional bearings used on conveyors, so why not change your metal ones for a longer, cleaner service life!”
In this video, the igubal self-aligning bearings are on show. “No grease, lightweight, in stock and ready to be exchanged for your metal bearings,” adds igus.
