Resistant to corrosion and chemicals
High dampening qualities
Suitable for rotary, oscillating and linear movements
Very low weight
Dimensional series K and E, dimensions according to DIN ISO 12240
Version with metal sleeve in the spherical ball for enhanced torque
igubal rod ends can be used with different tolerances depending on the individual application. They are designed with a large clearance in the standard product, which enables a secure operation even under high peripheral speeds. The bore of the spherical ball is produced to a standard tolerance range E10. Shafts should also meet recommended tolerances h6 and h9.
Please contact us if you require lower or additional bearing tolerances for a rod end bearing.
igubal® rod ends absorb high forces in normal ambient temperatures, have excellent dampening properties while weighing only a fifth of the conventional metallic bearing housing.
In applications with high continuous loads and high temperatures, the load capacity of the igubal® rod end bearing should be tested in the application simulation.
Coefficients of sliding friction and speed of the rod end bearing
The shaft should rotate within the iglidur® W300 bearing ball. In metallic rod ends, rotary motion takes place between the race and the spherical bearing. Taking the radial loads into account, maximum surface speeds up to 0.5 m/s rotating can be attained.
The maintenance-free igubal® rod ends also enable linear and oscillating movements of the shaft without additional measures.
Rod end bearing product range
igubal® rod ends are available in the dimensional series K and E for shaft diameters of 2 to 30 mm in all dimensions in accordance with DIN ISO 12240 and respectively in
type A – with outside thread and
type B – with inside thread
The dimensional series K and some series E products are also available in imperial dimensions as well as a special version containing a stainless steel sleeve in the spherical ball. This allows a significantly higher tightening torque than for the standard plastic ball. Please contact us if you need other dimensions for rod ends.
Dimensional series K in A+B variants for temperatures upt to
+200°C (HAT material).
