BEARINGS

Bearings are used to reduce friction when a component needs to slide or rotate within a machine.

Specifically in a marine engine, they allow the connecting rod to rotate freely on the crankshaft and prevent the engine from overheating.

In a water pump, they reduce friction between the pump shaft and the impellers, support the weight of the rotating parts of the pump and facilitate sliding.

Bearings are available in many shapes and sizes and cover a wide range of applications: motors, pumps, compressors, etc.

They are usually made of materials such as steel, ceramic or plastic, and are designed to withstand different loads, speeds and conditions.

Our bearings come from prestigious European manufacturers, meeting the highest quality and precision requirements.

The main problems that can arise with bearings are: corrosion, abrasion, fracture, etc.

Bearings can wear over time due to factors such as fatigue, contamination or lack of lubrication. Therefore, it is necessary to check them in order to keep them in good condition and to obtain a good performance.
