KAron® Hydropower Bearings and Coatings

Typical Applications:

KAron bearings have been in worldwide use for over 20 years. For every new commercial jetliner being built today, as well as most new helicopters and military aircraft, surface ships and submarines, KAron is specified when the highest performance is required. In service, it is repeatedly chosen to replace “standard” bearings in order to reduce maintenance and increase service life.

The potential benefits offered by KAron bearings for hydropower operations have been widely recognized. Over the past ten years, they have been installed or specifically selected for a broad range of applications including:
