The manufacturing industry has witnessed the rise of plain plastic bearings during the last 20 years, more and more so in automotive applications. Unknown to many engineers, plastic bearings have high wear resistance, require minimum maintenance and provide thermal stability, qualities imperative to the automotive industry.

Bearings made from high strength, self-lubricating plastic materials also deliver significant cost advantages over metal, and offer a range of technical benefits, including noise elimination, high temperature ranges, resistance to corrosion, and the elimination of lubrication and maintenance. Learn how engineered plastic bearings are holding up in automotive applications in this webinar, presented by igus, the world leader in self-lubricating plastics.

Watch this webinar:

  • How modern plastic materials hold up to extreme stressors in automotive applications
  • The range of possibilities for plastic bearings within a wide range of example applications
  • The tested power of plastic bearings real-life applications
