drylin double roller hybrid bearings now available for rail  diameters of 10 and 16 mm
 igus, The Cologne-based specialist for lubricant-free bearing technology, has expanded its range of double roller hybrid bearings with two new sizes. The range of hybrid bearings will now be completed with sizes of 10 and 16 millimetres. Lighter and quieter linear running on two rollers – also for applications with reduced installation space.
The quiet and smooth-running hybrid linear bearings from igus are used not only in camera technology, sliding doors or machine tool doors, but increasingly in cabins for construction machinery, or even for the individual hobbyist’s needs. To facilitate the design engineer in their selection, there is the option of two additional sizes of hybrid carriage. Behind the innovative concept of this bearing from igus is the combined advantages of plain and roller bearings. For extremely smooth and almost silent operation, the concept provides two angularly opposed rollers made of maintenance-free high performance plastics. The rollers take the weight in the main load and ensure low driving forces for manual operation. When misuse or moment forces occur, they will be absorbed smoothly over the sliding element, thus eliminating the risk of the carriage leaving the rail at the same time the movement of heavy loads becomes possible with minimal effort – all absolutely free of lubricant.
