Double flange plastic bearings suitable for E-Coat paint processesTribological material expert igus introduces the MKM bearing, a press fit bush with a flange at both ends. It is easy to fit by pressing in and turning down the second flange in one step.
The MKM bearing is axially mounted on both sides and pre-tensioned; it has a tolerance compensation of the sheet thickness and is now available in two materials, the standard iglidur M250 material or an electrically conductive material that can go through an E-Coat paint process.
These iglidur MKM double flange bearings are ideal for use in sheet metal structures that need to be painted after fitting. This is often found in products such as car seat frames, roofing systems and within the furniture industry.
Having the same characteristics as other iglidur bearings - maintenance-free, lubricant-free and wear-resistant -- designers and specifiers can still use the online tools such as the igus life calculator.
