Feroform and Railko
Non-metallic water pump bearing components
Feroform and Railko non-metallic water pump bearing components continue to be the superior choice for both pump manufacturers and end-users worldwide. This is achieved using high-temperature resins, abrasion-resistant fibre reinforcement and friction modifiers to enable dry start-up running.
Feroform and Railko at a glance
They can convey all manner of fluids since they are resistant to all typical process chemicals. Their wide range of applications includes water pump bearings, bushes, neck rings, wear rings, motor bushes and thrust discs. Feroform and Railko pump bearings are a superior alternative to PEEK and rubber cutlass materials.
- A longer lifetime
- A low coefficient of friction
- Excellent resistance to high abrasion.
Superior Load Bearing Capacity
Proven performance pump bearings
Tenmat materials allow higher rotational speeds and bigger shafts.
This is possible because Tenmat materials offer superior load-bearing capacity and tighter running clearances. Self-lubricating Tenmat materials avoid stick-slip of rotating parts thanks to a stable, low friction coefficient. This also reduces noise during operation. Tenmat material ensures that a pump does not lose performance which is often seen when traditional bearing parts fail.
The longer life of Tenmat materials comes from their superior resistance to abrasive environments. Tenmat offers a full machining capability with stock and the quickest machining turnaround. In the event of breakdown repairs, replacement parts can be shipped quickly.
Benefits of Tenmat pump bearings and wear parts
- Improved pump performance and higher pump capacities
- Lower noise
- Longer pump work life
- Improved pump reliability by avoiding the risk of seizure or stick-slip
- Tighter running clearances and better support for rotating parts
- Dry start-up allowed
- High resistance to corrosion and heat
- Protect against damage to internal pump components thanks to anti-corrosion material and better bearing capacity
- Quick supply for emergency repairs thanks to strategic material stock and quick machining turnaround
Materials
