Quality control
Delaminating or poor adhesion between babbitt and a journal bearing’s shell results in deteriorating equipment performance. To ensure that you get a rebabbitted component that will provide years of trouble-free operation, your remanufactured part undergoes ISO certified non-destructive (NDT) ultrasonic testing.
Our high-tech quality control tests detect any bonding issues so that they can be eliminated before you ever open the box.
