Our Water Lubricated Marine Bearings are engineered to deliver exceptional performance in marine applications, particularly in thrust direction operations. Crafted from Techemer TSTN elastic-plastic alloy, these bearings are self-lubricating and exhibit remarkable tear resistance, ensuring durability and reliability in demanding marine environments.
Techemer Water Lubricated Marine Bearing Features
Self-Lubrication
The integration of long-term lubricative particles within the Techemer TSTN alloy provides excellent self-lubricating properties, reducing the need for external lubrication and maintenance.
Water Lubrication
Designed for optimal performance with water as the lubricant, these bearings eliminate the necessity for oil-based systems, promoting environmental sustainability and reducing operational costs.
Low Starting Torque
The advanced material composition addresses the issue of high starting torques commonly associated with traditional rubber turbine guide bearings, facilitating smoother startups.
Dry Operation Capability
Our bearings can withstand short-term operations without water or during water shortages, enhancing operational flexibility and safety.
Shaft Protection
The superior lubricating properties effectively protect the shaft and bearing bushing, minimizing wear and extending service life.

Under the same conditions, Techemer elastoplastic alloy has less wear than other common nonmetal bearing materials, and some of its models are even better than imported materials,which means Techemer bearing has longer service life, higher reliability and lower maintenance cost.
Products Show
Techemer water lubricated marine bearings are designed to support propulsion shafts and thrust direction loads in ship propulsion systems. Manufactured from high-performance self-lubricating composite materials, these bearings provide low friction, excellent wear resistance, and reliable operation in seawater environments.
Widely used in stern tube and marine shaft systems, Techemer water lubricated marine bearings help maintain stable shaft alignment, reduce vibration, and extend service life in demanding marine applications.
Techemer bearings are extensively utilized in bulk carriers and working ships. They have proven to be effective replacements for metal stern bearings and rudder bearings in ship oil lubrication systems. Compared to other non-metal stern and rudder bearings in water lubrication systems, our bearings offer a longer service life, contributing to significant cost savings and increased system reliability for ship owners.
Our Strengths
Our water-lubricated marine bearings are crafted from Techemer TSTN elastomeric polymer alloy to deliver long-lasting self-lubrication and excellent tear resistance, even under heavy thrust loads and harsh seawater environments.
Water lubrication with no oil required eliminates grease leakage risks and reduces maintenance needs, supporting cleaner, eco-friendly operation in stern tubes, propulsors, and other thrust load systems.
With low starting torque, dry-run capability, and enhanced shaft protection, these bearings help extend service life, minimize downtime, and lower total operating costs—a reliable choice for marine propulsion and thrust bearing applications.
