Babbitt bearings are commonly found in compressors, turbines, pumps, generators, electric motors and other industrial rotating equipment. The bearings are designed to support the weight of the shaft and to maintain its axial position. Components are machined to specific tolerances that allows the shaft to float on a thin layer of oil in between the bearing. This prevents metal-to-metal damage to the high-speed rotating shaft and the bearing.
Below we received a guide bearing for repair. We inspected it, cleaned it up and quoted a quick turnaround from Cleveland Rebabbitting Service to our grateful customer.
At Cleveland Rebabbitting Service we apply a metal alloy coating that goes on the base metal to protect your bearing from wear. Once completed your bearing is now protected on the surface of your casting giving it an extended life span.
