TENMAT won’t leave you stranded!

In July 2017, Tenmat Limited despatched Feroform T14 marine bearing material less than 24 hours after receiving the customer order. The vessel was a large oil and chemical tanker with several thousands of DWT, at the time already in dry-dock.

The vessel required repairs to its stern tube assembly, needing a stern tube bearing of the highest quality with a very short leadtime. Due to the large daily costs of having a vessel docked, the ship owner asked Tenmat to despatch the high performance Feroform T14 material within one day.

Tenmat’s superior service and stock supports worldwide shipping

Tenmat boasts a long history and global reputation as a leading marine bearing supplier. We are trusted by all major shipping companies due to the high quality of product alongside superb service. In this case, the customer is one of Argentina’s leading shipping companies, operating between South America and Europe.

Costs incurred from vessels in docks can be challenging, and the vessel downtime means disruption to services. By supplying bearing materials quickly worldwide, Tenmat regularly reduces downtime and saves money for its customers. Tenmat is able to offer 24 hour despatch on marine bearing materials by holding stock of leading materials. This is bolstered by a wide network of official distributor partners and agents worldwide.
