In this video from Igus, we see some of the possible areas within a motorcycle or a motor scooter where the company’s polymer bearings are used.
Igus offers a large range of lubrication-free polymer bearings which can cope with high loads, high speeds and high temperatures. With attributes such as these, it is no wonder that they are ideal for utilising within motorcycles. These maintenance-free parts deliver a long service life and can, in some cases, improve performances over metal counterparts. The iglidur plain bearings are deployed in areas such as suspension forks, brakes and throttle valves, amongst other places, on motorcycles and motor scooters.
