mageba scope

For this project mageba delivered 730 LASTO-BLOCK elastomeric bearings of type B-CR with dimensions of 400x350x87 mm.

The consultant and the designer office had high demands in terms of quality of the installed products. As a result, CE label was required in addition to a third party quality inspection, that took place before delivery.

The working life of the installed bearings is 25 years, which coupled with mageba’s profound manufacturing experience made this project safe and successful.
