Advantages of Thordon Bearings<\/h2>\n

Environmentally friendly<\/h3>\n

Thordon Bearings are lubricated with potable water, seawater or other liquids with a pH between 3 and 11 (depending on the bearing material). This means that there is zero risk of contaminated lubricants entering the environment, which is particularly important in the maritime transport sector where lubricant contamination can have a significant impact on aquatic ecosystems.<\/p>\n

Durability<\/h3>\n

Polymer bearings are resistant to corrosion and abrasion, giving them a longer service life than conventional bearings. This helps reduce maintenance costs and downtime.<\/p>\n

Low friction<\/h3>\n

Thanks to advanced materials and a low coefficient of friction, Thordon Bearings ensure efficient performance even under high loads.<\/p>\n

Easy installation and maintenance<\/h3>\n

Polymer bearings do not require complex maintenance or constant lubrication, making them easy to operate.<\/p>\n

Safety under extreme conditions<\/h3>\n

Thordon Bearings bearings are designed to operate in harsh environments including high pressure, vibration and extreme temperatures.<\/p>\n
