1 What is iglidur® and what can it do? Quality from the igus® laboratory
What is iglidur®?
iglidur® polymers are enhanced by precisely
matched reinforced and solid lubricant additives,
tested thousands of times and proven over mil-
lions of cycles. The individual components are
not simply applied by coating but are homoge-
neously blended. This means that there is no
anti-friction film which can be forced apart under What can iglidur® achieve in
pressure, as is the case of traditional solutions automotive applications?
