FAQ
1
Can your bearing directly replace GGB HPMB without modifying the shaft?
Yes. FRCm is designed with the same dimensional standards. We can cross-reference your drawing or part number to confirm compatibility. HPMB’s machinable liner feature is also supported—you can machine on-site for IT7 precision fit.
2
What’s the actual lead time for a replacement order?
15–20 working days for standard sizes. Custom dimensions may take slightly longer, but far shorter than the typical 16+ weeks from other suppliers.
3
Do you have any hydropower project references using FRC series?
Yes. FRCq and FRCm have been used in hydropower guide bearing applications since 2015–2016, including projects with Dongfang Electric Machinery and ZHEFU Holding Group (Nam Tha 1 Hydropower Project). We can provide details upon request.
4
What’s the price difference compared to GGB?
Our pricing is typically more competitive. Please send your current part number and annual consumption for a firm quote.
5
Do you offer technical support for installation?
Yes, our engineering team provides remote or on-site technical support during installation if needed.
