Thordon Bearings Inc. says that demand for environmentally sustainable water-lubricated and grease-free bearings and seals has elevated dramatically within the U.S. and Latin American inland waterways market as increasingly operators look to resume their fleets consistent with environmental guidelines and laws. The firm stories that it has seen a big improve in orders for its water-lubricated RiverTough tailshaft bearings over the previous three years. Orders for the corporate’s grease-free, self-lubricating ThorPlas Blue bearings, TG100 shaft seals, and pucker seals have additionally seen comparable development.

Speaking in the course of the International Workboat Show, in New Orleans, Jason Perry, Thordon’s regional supervisor, North America, mentioned: “With much of the inland waterways fleet in the Americas comprised of relatively old vessels, environmental upgrades make good sense. And with waterborne freight on the increase, a whole new generation of more sustainable workboats is set to expand the fleet as environmental priorities and ESG issues in inland waterway operations climb the agenda. Owners are embracing the environmental and commercial benefits Thordon can bring to inland waterway operations.”

“Our workboat solutions not only meet the environmental targets set by vessel owners, but they are also popular with shipyards since the bearing material is much easier to machine and faster to fit than traditional rubber and greased bronze solutions,” added Perry. “A Thordon system reduces the operational and maintenance spend, improves system reliability, and removes the oil and grease-free interface between vessel and water.”

While market demand for Thordon merchandise within the U.S. is critical, Latin America is theregion the place Thordon has registered its largest development within the inland waterways sector over the previous three years.

“We have seen a marked increase in interest for more environmentally safe solutions across the Americas, particularly for RiverTough bearings and TG100 seals, as the sector looks to renew its fleet with more efficient solutions,” mentioned Scott Groves, vice chairman, gross sales at Thordon Bearings. “We have been able to meet this market demand by investing in new warehousing and inventory capability. We have established a robust supply chain so that all products are available at key locations across the inland waterway network, whenever and wherever our customers require them. And that is a key selling point for inland waterways operators for whom any delay or downtime is a costly exercise.”
