Engineered Ceramic Bushings and Custom Solutions for Extreme Applications

Engineered ceramic components represent a core competency at Zircoa, delivering customized solutions for applications where metals and other materials simply cannot meet performance requirements. Our ceramic bushings and engineered components are primarily developed for specific customer applications requiring precise dimensional tolerances, complex geometries, and performance in the harshest industrial environments.

While some components are developed based on recurring customer needs, most inquiries involve new, custom developments requiring precise machining and exacting tolerance requirements. Our material science expertise enables us to engineer solutions that withstand extreme wear, corrosion, impact, and high-temperature stress where standard materials fail.
