Woodex Bearing Company - Wood Bearings and Mechanical Shaft Seals


Company Profile


WOODEX Bearing Company manufactures Woodex® oil-impregnated wood bearings, and MECO® custom-engineered shaft seals in Georgetown, Maine.

Woodex bearings are used in a variety of materials handling equipment, including screw conveyors and roll conveyors. Products include three lines of standard hanger bearings, several roll end bearing profiles, and spherical bearings. Custom wood plane bearings are manufactured for a wide variety of shaft sizes and applications.

MECO shaft seals are used to seal dry powders, pastes, slurries, vapors, gases and fluids in many types of process machinery in these industries:


  • Chemicals
  • Food
  • Minerals
  • Pharmaceuticals
  • Plastics
  • Primary Metals
  • Pulp & Paper

MECO split seals are famous for their “invisible” partlines. MECO engineers review each seal application individually and specify design and materials for optimum performance. The seals are then drawn to spec and custom-manufactured. MECO is the original high-runout shaft seal for dry powder process machinery, and remains the leader in the field.

A network of custom seal distributors and qualified resellers provide support services, from equipment measurement to seal installation and operator training. MECO’s engineering staff does telephone and email consultation, and can provide on-site technical support where needed to ensure customer satisfaction.

MECO seals are manufactured for screw conveyors, mixers, blenders, dryers, crushers and grinders, extruders, extractors and many other process machines.
