Thordon Secures Contract to Retrofit Tailshaft Bearings Across Panama Fleet of 32 Tugs

Thordon Bearings has secured a significant contract to convert the rubber tailshaft bearings across an entire fleet of Panama-operating tugs, pilot vessels, and workboats to water-lubricated polymer bearings. The agreement with the unnamed operator follows the successful retrofitting of Thordon’s SXL tailshaft bearings to twelve of its twin-screw tugs last year during scheduled dry dockings.

Hydrodynamic Bearings Part 2: Reducing Friction

As mentioned previously, theoretically you can use any fluid to create a hydrodynamic bearing, but each fluid has limitations on the load and speed that it is capable of supporting.

As mentioned previously, theoretically you can use any fluid to create a hydrodynamic bearing, but each fluid has limitations on the load and speed that it is capable of supporting. For our water lubricated bearings, at zero speed the coefficient of friction between the shaft and bearing will equal the static friction coefficient (~0.25-0.35 for SXL). As the relative speed between the surfaces increases, we see the coefficient drop quickly until it reaches a minimum of approximately 0.01

Thordon Tailshaft Package Selected After Competitor Solution Wears NIRSA Down

Ecuador’s foremost tuna fishing operator NIRSA has completed a project to convert the tailshaft seals and bearings aboard the 1973-built tuna vessel BP EL Marquez to a seawater-lubricated package from Thordon Bearings. In total, four Thordon SXL propeller shaft bearings and a pair of TG100 mechanical shaft seals, each of which features Thordon’s emergency-safe-return-to-port (SRTP) capability, replaced a competitor’s seawater-lubricated bearings and stuffing box after the shaft had suffered early wear due to gland packing. Bronze shaft liners were also included in the Thordon scope of supply in what marked a significant retrofit project that required the renewal of shafts, sterntubes, seals and bearings.

Thordon Bearings' Polymer Technology Power Success in Vietnam's Hydropower Sector

Thordon Bearings pioneering polymer bearing technology is gaining traction in Vietnam’s hydropower market, following the performance success of its self-lubricating bearings retrofitted to 5 turbines at the Sơn La Hydropower plant. Thordon’s wicket gate and linkage bearings have been in continuous use for four years and were installed when the company was asked to provide an alternative to a competing system, some parts of which had failed after just two years under the intensive conditions at the dam.
