Replacement of bronze bushings in hydroelectric power plant by Victo HiL
In a hydroelectric power plant application, several bronze bushings installed on critical equipment were subject to corrosion, progressive wear, and constant dependence on lubrication.
The operating conditions—constant humidity, temperature variations, and heavy loads—required regular maintenance and costly scheduled interventions.
Tassitech replaced most of the bronze bushings with Victo HiL bushings, a lubrication-free and corrosion-resistant solution.
The observed benefits:
- zero maintenance
- zero grease
- zero corrosion
- dimensional stability
- consistent performance in wet conditions
Result: complete elimination of lubrication requirements, reduction in planned downtime, and improvement in the overall reliability of plant equipment.
