The Morgoil Bearing Division of Morgan Construction Company has received a contract to manufacture Morgoil bearings for Anshan Iron and Steel Group Corporation.

The Morgoil Bearing Division of Morgan Construction Company has received a contract to manufacture Morgoil bearings for Anshan Iron and Steel Group Corporation, Liaoning Province, the People's Republic of China.

The bearings will be installed in a new heavy plate mill that Anshan Iron and Steel Group is building in Liaoning Province.

According to Gabriel Royo, Vice President and General Manager of Morgoil: "These bearings are the new Morgoil KLX design".

"When compared with the previous KL design, they allow for approximately 25% higher load capacity".

"Alternatively, with the same load, the bearings can be smaller, reducing the overall capital cost of the new plate mill".

He added: "The KLX bearing also results in a stiffer bearing, and thus an improvement in strip quality".

Delivery is scheduled to begin in the summer of 2006.
