Marine & Shipbuilding

Corrosion-tolerant bearings, chain and lifting for yards and vessels

Overview

Shipyards and marine facilities combine heavy lifting, deck machinery and rotating equipment in a relentlessly corrosive environment. Salt, water and shock loading demand components chosen and sealed for the duty. SES supplies marine-grade bearings, chain, drives and lifting equipment, and brings its reliability and reverse-engineering capability to deck and yard machinery that has run past its drawing.

Equipment challenges

What this sector demands from components.

Salt-water Corrosion

Constant salt exposure attacks bearings, chain and drives; correct materials and sealing are essential for any service life.

Heavy and Shock Lifting

Yard cranes, winches and deck machinery handle heavy, dynamic loads where only load-rated, certified equipment is acceptable.

Ageing Deck Machinery

Vessels and yards run equipment for decades; obsolete parts often have to be reverse-engineered and remade.
