Waukesha Bearings applies ceramic and cermet (ceramic-metallic composite) materials to thrust and journal bearing designs to extend bearing capabilities in applications where traditional materials and polymers fall short. The extremely hard surfaces of ceramic/cermet bearings can handle corrosive materials, contaminated lubricant and temperatures beyond the limits of polymers and traditional materials. Ceramic/cermet bearings: Retain their […]

Waukesha Bearings continues its work in advanced material bearings with the application of aluminum tin (AlSn). A drop-in replacement for babbitt tilt pads, AlSn-lined tilt pads provide higher load capacity than babbitt pads due to higher temperature capability and greater fatigue resistance. AlSn pads can operate at up to 60% higher loads than babbitt pads. […]
