Pitch Bearing Seals for the Largest Wind Turbines in the World

Challenge

Large-diameter seals in wind turbines became dislodged from their housings, causing loss of bearing grease, water ingress and significant damage to the pitch bearings.

Solution

System Seals redesigned the bearing groove dimensions and created a multi-faceted, high-performance seal.

Result

The new seal performed flawlessly in initial lab tests and then for more than a year in the field. System Seals now produces all new pitch-bearing seals for one of the largest wind turbine manufacturers in the world.
