Spherical balls
Our igubal spherical balls compensate for misalignment with their spherical shape and allow low-friction shaft rotation. They run without lubrication, are maintenance-free, and help reduce operating costs. We offer nine iglidur high-performance polymers for different requirements, including PTFE-free options, FDA-compliant materials, and solutions for underwater use and extreme temperatures from –100 °C to +250 °C.
