iglide® GV0 | V0 rating according to UL94, universal
 

• UL94 V0 rating
• High abrasion resistance
• Universal use
• Lubrication and maintenance-free
• Standard range from stock

iglide® GV0 is the first iglide® material with the UL94 V0 rating for universal use in the normal temperature range and is therefore ideally suited for applications with stringent fire protection regulations (vehicle and aircraft interiors, building interior systems, etc.). All other iglide® materials with V0 rating are part of the high-temperature segment. The general mechanical and thermal specifications are largely comparable to the all-around performer, iglide® G300.
 
Typical application areas

When not to use? When you need a UL94 V0 classified bearing for high-temperature applications When you need a standard bearing without having to meet special fire codes   Use our filter options to find the most suitable product

Tolerances and measurement system
The installation dimensions and tolerances of the iglide® plain bearings are a function of the material and wall thicknesses. For each material, the moisture absorption and the thermal expansion are imperative. Plain bearings with low moisture absorption can be designed with a minimal amount of tolerance. For wall thickness, the rule is: The thicker the bearings are, the larger the tolerances must be.
Testing methods
 
Assembly
iglide® bearings are press-fit bearings. The inner diameter adjusts only after press-fit in the proper housing bore with a recommended tolerance. The before press-fit oversized dimension can be up to 2% of the inner diameter. In this manner, the secure press-fitting of the bearing is achieved. Axial or radial shifts in the housing are also prevented.
