igubal KALM-2.0 and KARM-2.0 – Maintenance-Free Metallic Rod Ends with External Threads for High Loads

The igubal KALM-2.0 and KARM-2.0 rod ends with male threads are the ideal solution for applications with high static and dynamic loads. They are available either in stainless steel (1.4301) with a stainless steel (1.4028) spherical ball or in galvanized steel (1.0503) with a hard-chromed steel (1.3505) spherical ball, and — with their sliding ring made of high-performance plastic — offer a lubrication-free alternative to conventional rod end bearings. The solid lubricant contained throughout the plastic is released in microscopic quantities over time, ensuring maintenance-free dry operation. Depending on the requirements, various iglidur materials are available:

• iglidur J – the versatile all-rounder with excellent wear resistance
• iglidur X – for extreme temperatures (-100 °C to +250 °C, briefly up to +315 °C)
• iglidur A181 – for FDA-compliant applications in the food and pharmaceutical industries
• iglidur G – specifically designed for applications with alternating loads

igubal 2.0 joint heads are used in many industries to transmit dynamic forces in swivel, tilt, and rotational movements. The shaft diameter, thread direction, thread type, ring material, and housing material can be selected.
