Bearings for Hydroelectric Power Plants
High-performance bearings for hydroelectric power stations belong to the most critical components in energy production. Turbines such as Francis, Kaplan or Pelton require extremely reliable bearing solutions that can withstand high loads, slow rotational speeds, water ingress, vibration and continuous operation under heavy stress.
What We Supply
We provide a full range of bearings for hydroelectric turbines and auxiliary equipment, including:
- Main shaft bearings for Kaplan, Francis and Pelton turbines
- Thrust bearings and thrust pads for high axial loads
- Guide bearings with high stability and long service life
- Spherical roller bearings for heavy radial loads
- Cylindrical roller bearings for high axial stiffness
- Seals and housings for turbine environments
- Bearings for generators, pumps and gear systems
Suitable Brands
We work with globally trusted manufacturers to secure the exact specification you need, including SKF, FAG, INA, NSK, NTN, KOYO, TIMKEN, SNR, NKE and others. If required, we can also source discontinued or hard-to-find turbine bearings from older installations.
Applications
- Kaplan turbine main shafts
- Francis turbine guide and thrust systems
- Pelton wheel bearing assemblies
- Hydraulic power unit pumps
- Generator bearing systems
- Dam gate actuators
Why This Matters
Hydroelectric power plants operate continuously and require components that deliver maximum reliability. A bearing failure in a turbine can lead to downtime, water flow restrictions, expensive repairs and safety hazards. That is why proper bearing selection, precision sourcing and correct certification are essential.
Request a Quotation
If you need turbine bearings, thrust pads, housings or complete assemblies, send us your bearing number, turbine type or photos of the existing unit. We will quickly find the correct replacement options and provide delivery terms to the Czech Republic.
