Fixed Geometry Bearings
Our Fixed Geometry Bearings enhance rotor dynamics with customizable stiffness and damping. Available in various bore configurations and thrust surface options, they ensure versatile, optimal performance. 100BOND® technology extends product life by improving fatigue resistance and temperature transmission, delivering more reliable bearings.
Tilting Pad Journal Bearings
Our Tilting Pad Journal Bearings are engineered for high-speed, high-load turbomachinery applications, offering superior rotor dynamic performance without self-excited vibrations. Available with various pivot types and options for one-piece or split housings, they are customizable to meet industry-specific requirements.
Tilting Pad Thrust Bearings
Our Tilting Pad Thrust Bearings are designed for demanding turbomachinery, supporting high sliding speeds and continuous operation under heavy loads with proper oil supply. With individually tilting pads in a carrier ring, they form a hydrodynamic film that balances load and compensates for misalignment.
Seals
We provide high-performance seal solutions to enhance rotating equipment efficiency. Specializing in 100BOND® repair and manufacturing labyrinth seals and bearings, we offer standard and custom designs. Our compliant sealing systems reduce leakage in air, steam, or gas applications, ensuring minimal wear and sustained efficiency.

Wärtsilä is always looking to support our customers by sourcing new innovations that make products durable, efficient and environmentally sound. Our Wärtsilä White Metal Laser Technology delivers that.
At Wärtsilä, we adhere to the highest international standards to ensure exceptional quality and environmental responsibility. Our certifications include ISO 9001:2015 for quality management, ISO 14001:2015 for environmental management, and OHSAS 18001 for occupational health and safety. In addition, we are certified under ISO 14067 - carbon footprint of products DNV certified. This verifies the calculation of the partial carbon footprint associated with the babbitting application process using our patented 100Bond® system. Comparative results demonstrate that the 100Bond® application process achieves a carbon footprint 70.4% lower than the standard casting-based system.
