Benefits Of Engineered Wear Products
Engineered wear products are tailored for a specific application. This includes the shapes, sizes, and features of components as well as the materials from which they’re made and the conditions in which they must operate.
As a result, engineered wear products have longer working lives. Incorporating them into an assembly lessens downtime and maintenance.
From Design To Production
Our area of expertise is manufacturing custom wear products using your print, specification, or purchase order requirements. Those with a unique need but no vetted design are welcome, too.
As a one-stop shop, we work with you to develop a concept and make a prototype. Once the design is approved, full-scale production begins. With various machining capabilities and value-added services under one roof, your supply chain is streamlined.
- CNC Machining
- Welding
- Painting
A range of bearing configurations are available including:
- One-Piece
- Two-Piece
- Split Bushings
- Flanged Bushings
- Flat Plates
- Spherilube Plates
- Spherical Shapes
From miniature bearings to large assemblies, we have unparalleled bearing manufacturing capabilities. Our facility can accommodate raw material with outside diameters of up to 124 inches and weights of up to 35 tons.
Our machinists can produce bearings with complex geometries from just about any material you desire. Those they work with often include bronze, stainless steel, and steel alloys. Multiple lubricant formulas are available to suit specific needs.
Industry-Specific Specialty Engineered Products
As a custom bearing manufacturer our custom bearings and assemblies can carry extremely heavy dynamic and static loads as well as prevent galling, scoring, and seizing. As self-lubricated products, they can operate in dry or immersed environments and withstand low and high temperatures.
Renowned for performance and longevity, engineered wear products from Lubrite® Technologies are suitable for various applications. Examples include:
- Bridges
- Hydroelectric Facilities
- Offshore Environments
- Industrial Processing
- Structural Members
- Nuclear Power
