Simplicity® linear bearings from PBC Linear are designed to withstand most industrial environments, including extreme temperatures, washdown, fine particulate contaminants, vibration, and more. The design features that enable this kind of versatility are ones that also contribute to the longevity of a Simplicity bearing's life.
Read below for a comparison between Simplicity plain bearings and Igus DryLin plan bearings.
When the Simplicity linear bearing is directly compared to a bearing such as the igus DryLin R bearing, the Simplicity bearing is projected to last up to three times longer—this not only avoids the cost of three bearing replacements, but also eliminates the possibility of bearing-related downtime and lost production costs. This, among other things, helps keep PBC Linear’s overall bearing replacement costs 25% LOWER than a situation utilizing igus bearings.
