SRG Bearings are one of the largest bearing manufacturers and suppliers in the UK. Our bearing range consists of conveyor roller bearings and in particular semi-precision roller bearings, precision roller bearings and plastic housed roller bearings. We also manufacture custom bearings for everyday applications including patio door bearings and lawnmower bearings.
In addition, we manufacture overhead conveyor bearings and overhead conveyor chain fitted with both sealed bearings and unsealed bearings, thus covering a wide variety of environments.
With full CNC and conventional machining facilities we have the capability to undertake the design, testing and manufacture of all manner of specialist industrial bearings in addition to our established bearing range. Our experience and expertise makes us one of the leading bearing manufacturers in the UK. This is backed up by a rigorously maintained ISO 9001 quality system, ensuring our bearings will continue to help the wheels of industry turn for many years to come.
Hercules Bearing, Joint and Vibration Isolation Systems have been used in thousand of projects throughout the world since its establishment in Australia in 1972. They are technically mature and have gained a reputation for their quality products and technical expertise.
In Malaysia, Hercules is represented by Hercules Engineering (SEA) Sdn Bhd who first entered the Malaysian market in 1997 as a fully Malaysian company specializing in structural bearings, expansion joints and other accessories for bridges, buildings, tanks, pipeline, offshore structures and special projects such as bridge launching, bridge repair and formwork fabrication.
Since then, we have successfully supplied our products and providing our technical services to thousands of challenging signature projects including the world tallest Kuala Lumpur Petronas Twin Towers, Malaysian-Singapore Second Crossing, Express Rail Link, Kuala Lumpur International Airport and Putrajaya Bridges (refer to Project reference).
In response to the recent National Call by the Malaysian Government to adopt modern technology, Hercules Engineering initiated to take the pioneer lead in manufacturing pot-type bearings and expansion joints in Malaysia, This pioneer production also coincides with the National Spirit of "Malaysia Boleh".
Bearings are designed to transmit the load of the superstructure to the substructure, while allowing specific movements and rotation of the superstructure caused by wind or seismic effects, temperature variations, deck deflections, sinking of any of the supports, elastic shortening due to creep, shrinkage or prestressing, etc.
Whether E-Link elastomeric bearings, V-Max pot bearings, R-Max spherical bearing or other bearing types are used depends on the structure, loads and movements of the bridge.
