drylin - best coefficient of friction, lowest wear
Materials
igus offers various materials for sliding elements and mating partners for drylin linear systems. Years of testing have shown that iglidur J, J 200 and X are the ideal materials for most linear applications due to their wear and friction properties.
Optimum combination of materials
iglidur J
The material iglidur J achieved the best results in our tests on almost all shaft materials. Comparative laboratory tests show that iglidur J is the polymer with the lowest friction and wear for linear applications.
Special specifications of
iglidur J:
- Maintenance-free dry operation
- Low coefficient of friction with all materials
- Excellent wear resistance
- Very low moisture absorption

iglidur J200
iglidur J200 was specially developed for linear applications in combination with hard-anodised aluminium surfaces. This combination achieved by far the best results in our laboratory tests.
Special specifications of iglidur J200:
- Absolutely maintenance-free
- Extreme service life on hard anodised aluminium
- Low coefficient of friction with anodised aluminium
- Excellent wear resistance with anodised aluminium

iglidur X
iglidur X is characterised by its high temperature resistance and compressive strength, combined with extreme chemical resistance. iglidur X achieves its best wear resistance on stainless steel and chrome-plated steel shafts.
Special specifications of
iglidur X:
- Absolutely maintenance-free
- Temperature resistance -100°C to +250°C in continuous operation
- Universal chemical resistance
- Very low moisture absorption

iglidur E7
iglidur E7 is the specialist for steel and stainless steel shafts. This material is very vibration-dampening and particularly abrasion-resistant and achieves an eight-fold higher service life.
Special specifications of iglidur E7:
- Quiet operation due to good dampening properties
- Extremely low coefficient of friction
- Self-lubricating due to incorporated solid lubricants
- Corrosion-free
- Very low moisture absorption
