Water Lubricated Marine Bearing Thrust Direction Self Lubricating And Tear

Our Water Lubricated Marine Bearings are engineered to deliver exceptional performance in marine applications, particularly in thrust direction operations. Crafted from INDRON® TSTN elastic-plastic alloy, these bearings are self-lubricating and exhibit remarkable tear resistance, ensuring durability and reliability in demanding marine environments.

INDRON® Water Lubricated Marine Bearing Features

• Self-Lubrication: The integration of long-term lubricative particles within the INDRON® TSTN alloy provides excellent self-lubricating properties, reducing the need for external lubrication and maintenance.

• Water Lubrication: Designed for optimal performance with water as the lubricant, these bearings eliminate the necessity for oil-based systems, promoting environmental sustainability and reducing operational costs.

• Low Starting Torque: The advanced material composition addresses the issue of high starting torques commonly associated with traditional rubber turbine guide bearings, facilitating smoother startups.

• Dry Operation Capability: Our bearings can withstand short-term operations without water or during water shortages, enhancing operational flexibility and safety.

• Shaft Protection: The superior lubricating properties effectively protect the shaft and bearing bushing, minimizing wear and extending service life.

Water Lubricated Marine Bearing Applications

INDRON® bearings are extensively utilized in bulk carriers and working ships. They have proven to be effective replacements for metal stern bearings and rudder bearings in ship oil lubrication systems. Compared to other non-metal stern and rudder bearings in water lubrication systems, our bearings offer a longer service life, contributing to significant cost savings and increased system reliability for ship owners.
