Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

​

What types of bearings does IBSCO supply for the energy industry?

We specialize in miniature and precision bearings ideal for instrumentation, sensors, and control systems. However, we can also source large industrial bearings for heavy-duty applications such as turbines, pumps, gearboxes, and drilling equipment used in oil, gas, wind, and solar sectors.

 

Can IBSCO provide custom bearing solutions for my specific application?

Yes. We work closely with customers to engineer and source custom solutions tailored to specific performance requirements, including load capacity, temperature range, material composition, and environmental factors.

 

Are IBSCO’s bearings suitable for harsh environments?

Absolutely. We provide bearings that meet the demanding requirements of energy environments, including corrosion resistance, high-load durability, and temperature tolerance for offshore, desert, or high-altitude conditions.

 

Do you supply bearings for renewable energy systems like wind turbines and solar trackers?

Yes. We support both traditional and renewable energy industries. Our bearings are used in wind turbine generators, pitch/yaw systems, and solar tracking systems, as well as smaller components like sensors and electric drives.

 

Can IBSCO help with sourcing hard-to-find or discontinued bearing models?

Yes. Through our extensive global supplier network, we specialize in locating obsolete, hard-to-source, or specialty bearings, ensuring you get the parts you need—even for legacy systems.

 

What are your lead times for energy sector orders?

Lead times vary based on bearing size, type, and sourcing location. We stock many miniature bearings for quick shipment, and we work to minimize lead times for large or specialty orders through our efficient supply chain.
