Strips
Strips or sliding strips belong to the group of plain bearings and are mainly used as slideways. This ensures the absorption and transmission of forces acting perpendicular to the running surface and guarantees the accuracy of axial movements. Sliding elements in various shapes can be produced from the strips available in sections. As a rule, strips are offered for maintenance-free applications (dry-running) or for low-maintenance applications (lubricated) depending on the material used.
