Babbitt White Metal Bearing Inspection
We follow a centrifugal casting process which has proved to be a better and successful process. The bonding between the babbitt white metal and base steel casting is achieved of high standard.
Manufacturing of New Babbitt White Metal Bearings is undertaken on the basis of a sample or a drawing provided by our client. The old bearings rebabbitting is undertaken maintaining the composition of babbitt white metal superior than the original. This increases the life of Babbitt white metal bearings.
Babbitt White Metal Thrust Bearing Under Machining
Thrust Bearing White Metal
We have recently manufactured Babbitt White Metal Thrust Bearings for a company based in UK (United Kingdom) the design of bearing is quite complexed as we have to develop dedicated tooling for Machining of profiles.
The main Dimensions are as following:-
Bearing Bore
6.500 to 6.5005 Inches
Running Clearance (New)
0.005 to 0.0075 inches Max. permissible 0.012 Inches
Developing and manufacturing bearings as large as 1500 mm in diameter is no small feat. It speaks volumes about RA Power Solutions’ expertise in metallurgy, precision engineering, and quality control. These bearings are crucial for ensuring smooth operation and longevity in industrial machinery, where performance and reliability are paramount.
RA Power Solutions undertakes rebabbitting of old, worn out, and damaged bearings up to 1500mm diameter for large industrial and marine companies. The rebabbitting is undertaken using the different grades of Babbitt white metal as per international standards. All the bearings rebabbitting is undertaken by a centrifugal process which results in the perfect bonding with the steel casing of the bearings.
The rebabbitting operation executed by us has the following features:
The white metal of the bearing is removed under the controlled temperature.
The bare bearing steel casing is shot-blasted for proper cleaning.
The bearing casing is subject to hardness test and all the hard spots are removed by scooping.
The bearing casing is subject to crack detection by the MPI process.
The bearing is centrifugally cast.
All the bearings after rebabbitting are subject to ultrasound tests to check the bonding with the base metal
Final machining is done on CNC machines, maintaining close tolerance as per the requirements.
We manufacture Babbitt bearings as per the drawing and requirements of the client. We have in-house facilities to manufacture white metal engine bearings, white metal pump shaft bearings, white metal turbine bearings, white metal alternator bearings, white metal rotor shaft bearings, white metal crankshaft bearings, and white metal bearings for all sizes of shafts ranging from 60 mm to 1500 mm.
With a focus on customer satisfaction, RA Power Solutions caters to a diverse range of industries, including power generation, marine, and heavy engineering. Their white metal bearings are designed to withstand extreme conditions, providing long-lasting solutions that contribute to the efficiency and longevity of machinery.
We are dedicated to providing comprehensive solutions, including installation and maintenance services, ensuring that our clients experience seamless operations and minimal downtime
We are conveniently situated near New Delhi, India (International Airport) and can facilitate the necessary arrangements for import and re-export after repairs promptly and cost-effectively. This is the primary reason we serve more than 36 countries, meeting their critical needs for new white metal Babbitt bearings and providing rebabbitting services for damaged bearings.
RA Power Solutions is the manufacturer of white metal Lining Bearing bushes. These bushes are used in heavy hydraulic machines, engines, compressors, and heavy equipment.
The main specification of a white metal bearing bush is as follows:
We have recently executed an order to manufacture white metal Lining bearing bushes having a bearing block outer diameter of 490 mm and a bearing block length of 980 mm.

Development & Manufacturing of White Metal BearingBush
We develop, supply, and manufacture babbitt white metal/bush as per the drawing given by our client.
In case the drawing of the bearing is not available to the client we undertake the reverse engineering process and prepare the drawing based on the sample given to us. The bearing is developed & manufactured according to the sample.
RA Power Solutions also has the facility of sending technicians to the site along with CAD-CAM engineers who prepare the drawing of the bearing on the spot. This facility of deputation of CAD-CAM engineers is appreciated by heavy engineering industries, cement, steel, power plants, etc all over the world as their plants & machinery are old.
RA Power Solutions undertakes Rebabbitting of Babbitt white metal bearings for last more than 41 years of thrust, crankpin, and main journal, turbine, rotor, and alternator bearings for all applications up to 1500 mm diameter.
At RA Power Solutions, we take pride in our expertise as a turbine journal bearing manufacturer and our ability to provide exceptional repair services for Babbitt white metal bearings.
In this blog post, we highlight our recent accomplishment in Nigeria, where we successfully repaired a 120 MW turbine bearing. Our team of highly skilled technicians and advanced facilities enabled us to overcome the challenges and restore the bearing’s functionality efficiently.
Read on to learn more about our expertise as a turbine journal bearing manufacturer, turbine bearing repair of 120 MW, and how we handled this complex repair project.
OUR EXPERIENCE IN REBABBITTING OF WHITE METAL BEARING:-
Extending the services of Rebabbitting and repair of white metal bearings all over the world for more than 41 years.
The Rebabbitting of Babbitt white metal bearings up to 1500 mm is executed strictly by centrifugal process ensuring strong bonding between the Babbitt white metal and steel base of the bearing.
In-house machining facilities with an accuracy of 10-20 microns are achieved.
Regularly undertaking Rebabbitting assignments of prestigious organizations from the field of nuclear power stations, high-capacity turbines and generators, and main and auxiliary engines.
Facilities for metallurgical analysis of Babbitt white metal and expert recommendation for enhancing the quality of Babbitt white metal for an increase in service life.
All bearings are subject to strict quality control norms by experienced technicians for hardness tests, crack checks by MPI, dimensional checks, and ultrasound for bonding.
REPAIR OF 120 MW TURBINE BEARING UNDERTAKEN FOR A LEADING NIGERIAN STEEL COMPANY:-
We were approached by a leading steel company based in Nigeria to undertake the Rebabbitting of a white metal turbine bearing having a capacity of 120 MW. They have been getting previously the repairs done by a company based in Europe which failed in a short duration of operation, never gave satisfactory performance, and charged exorbitantly.
RA Power Solutions undertook the successful repair of rebabbitting of the 120 MW turbine bearing.

ON RECEIPT OF BEARING FROM NIGERIA IT WAS THOROUGHLY INSPECTED FOR THE FOLLOWING:-
The old white Babbitt metal was removed under a controlled temperature.
Shot blasting of the bearing shell was undertaken.
The hardness of the inner diameter was checked.
Crack detection by MPI and dye-penetration test was undertaken of bearing steel casing.
A crack detection test by ultrasound method was done before and after Rebabbitting.
Ultrasound was again done to check the bonding of Babbitt white metal with steel casing.
Assistance was provided in the transportation of heavy bearings to our works for white metal rebabbitting from other countries.
We provide complete assistance in the export of damaged bearings and return of bearings to the end-user after turbine bearing repair.
We have a definite advantage of our location as we are only 30 30-minute drive from New Delhi International Airport.
Our plant is also close to the dry port of New Delhi, in case our client wants to dispatch the bearing by sea.
