iglidur® A181, sleeve bearing, mm - A181SM

iglidur® A181 | The universal bearing for food contact
iglidur® A181 offers both FDA and 10/2011 EC conformity. The blue colour also facilitates the "optical detectability" often required in the food sector. Directly comparable with iglidur® A180 in terms of mechanical properties, temperature and media resistance, iglidur® A181 is even better in terms of wear resistance in most constellations.

When to use it? When FDA compliance is required When a material conforming to the 10/2011 EC is required When an universal material suitable for direct contact with food is required

When not to use it? If FDA and 10/2011 EC conformity are not required iglidur® J, flanged bearing, mm If temperatures permanently greater than +90°C occur iglidur® A350, flanged bearing, mm When an inexpensive universal bearing is sought iglidur® G, flanged bearing, mm iglidur® P, flanged bearing, mm

Tolerances and measuring system
The installation dimensions and tolerances of the iglidur® bearings depend on the material and wall thickness. Moisture absorption and thermal expansion are decisive for the material. Plain bearings with low moisture absorption can be installed with a small bearing clearance. The following applies to the wall thickness: The thicker the bearings, the greater the bearing clearance must be.
Test procedure

Assembly
iglidur® bearings are press-fit bearings. The inner diameter is only set with the corresponding tolerance after pressing into the housing bore. The press-fit interference can be up to 2% of the inner diameter. This ensures a secure press fit of the bearings. Axial or radial displacements in the housing are thus reliably avoided.
