Eliminate Oil Contamination with Water-Lubricated Bearings
Hydro Tech specializes in oil-to-water bearing conversions using Lignum Vitae — a naturally self-lubricating hardwood that has been the gold standard in water-lubricated bearing applications for over a century.
Oil-lubricated guide bearings pose a constant risk of contamination to waterways. Our water-lubricated bearing solutions eliminate this risk entirely while delivering comparable or superior performance. Lignum Vitae's natural oils and exceptional hardness make it ideally suited for continuous operation in water.
We design each bearing system to fit within your existing housing, minimizing modifications and reducing installation time during planned outages.
