The ability of FEROFORM bearings to work with sea water in dirty abrasive environments gives design engineers robust bearing and wear pad solutions for the offshore industries.

FEROFORM T814 is used on Floating Production and Storage Operation (FPSO) turrets horizontal and vertical slide pads due to its low level of friction and resistance to wear. Other applications are for windlasses, jack lift guides, drill string support pivots, fairleads, sheaves, and mooring systems.

FEROFORM PR82 can be used as fingerboard bushes, crane pivot point bearings, stinger roller bearings, fairleads, winches and much more. A self lubricating material, PR82 is often used in place metal bearings offering a cost saving to equipment manufacturers by eliminating complex lubrication systems.
