Technical summary
In Seabra, Bahia, FBEI (external gear) serves local industry with 12 sizes (1/8" to 6"), pressure up to 22 kgf/cm² and field-validated materials. Cabreúva-SP at 1337 km, 72-96h logistics lead time.


Cabreúva-SP → Seabra (1337 km via BR-116 (via Fernão Dias BR-381 até MG)): origin of FB manufacturing since 1944, with vertical integration on a single site — CNC machining, assembly hydraulic bench and ISO 21940 G2.5 balancing — every unit ships with a traceable Data Book. FB Bombas maintains in Seabra the technical portfolio of CRCC Petrobras + API 610 + API 676 + ASME B73.1 — a regulatory base that spans refining, petrochemicals, mining, sanitation, food, pulp and paper, sugar-ethanol and steel. Seabra, Bahia is territory where FB Bombas operates as a Brazilian industrial-pump manufacturer with 80 years of continuous operation. For the local industry industrial profile dominating the region, we offer the FBE, FBCN, FBOT and FBEI series with CRCC Petrobras certification, API 610 / API 676 compliance and ASME B73.1 normalization — basis for retrofit in plants with global manufacturers already installed. Seabra sits 337 km from the refining cluster centered in Sao Francisco Do Conde, a proximity that usually means shared suppliers and aligned maintenance standards. In Seabra, FB Bombas serves projects with in-house application engineering: system-curve analysis, NPSH balance (available vs required), series selection (FBE / FBCN / FBOT / FBEI / FBFS) and API 682 sealing plan. Road access runs via BR-116 (via Fernão Dias BR-381 até MG), with branches through BR-116, BR-101 and BR-324 — a corridor that sets delivery times for rotating equipment and the logistics of technical service. Typical fluids in Seabra's industrial operations include óleos industriais and água industrial — a vector that determines whether the correct specification is the FBE/FBEI (gear) or FBCN/FBOT (centrifugal / thermal oil) series.

Typical fluids in Seabra's industrial operations include óleos industriais and água industrial — a vector that determines whether the correct specification is the FBE/FBEI (gear) or FBCN/FBOT (centrifugal / thermal oil) series.
FBEI and FBCN: this is the set of FB series with initial technical fit for Seabra, respecting fluid characteristics and the regional operating regime. For óleos industriais and água industrial, the materials recommendation in Seabra converges on austenitic stainless steels (AISI 304/316) with attention to thermal expansion, a starting point adjustable based on field-observed corrosion. In Seabra, transferência geral and utilidades are the applications that most often appear in local industrial operations; each defines a distinct set of process variables. The pump-and-motor set shipped to Seabra undergoes bench hydraulic testing and G2.5 dynamic balancing (ISO 21940), with a traceable report.
The low fluid-complexity profile in Seabra (lean fluid roster — technical operation focused on few main vectors) shapes FB's technical strategy: standardization versus case-by-case customization. Seabra shows a high industrial density — multiple plants in a small radius, meaningful cumulative demand pattern, a structural factor that modulates predictability of recurring revenue and the viable contract type (spot, annual, multi-year). refino cluster near Seabra imposes a scheduled outages every 3-5 years (turnaround) — synchronized demand peaks across the supply chain pace — syncing equipment purchases, PM contracting and regional technical-team mobilization. The fluid catalogue in Seabra (óleos industriais and água industrial) demands case-by-case technical analysis: pour point, Saybolt viscosity at operating temperature, suspended solids and pH profile. The refino cluster around Seabra concentrates applications crude transfer, distillation-tower circulation, charge pumps for reactors and movement of derivatives — a technical package where FB Bombas has commissioning, retrofit and long-term support history. Use cases in Seabra (series FBEI for transferência geral and series FBCN for utilidades) follow the FB technical playbook with benchmarking against an analogous installed base in a comparable region.
48-72h, with possible technical stop: this is the typical delivery interval Cabreúva-SP → Seabra, based on a consolidated road route and FB-qualified logistics operators. The BR-116 (via Fernão Dias BR-381 até MG) corridor (1337 km) is the logistics spine for FB deliveries to Seabra — a factor entering FOB pricing and the commissioning lead-time curve. The factory-to-Seabra dispatch includes technical packaging (impact protection, moisture sealing), multilingual documentation (PT/EN/ES when required) and approved-carrier tracking.
FB engineers serve Seabra for the FBE series with a sized proposal — duty point, fluid, field conditions and supply lead time.

Brazilian sectors for which FB Bombas sizes equipment — complete technical guides per application.
Regional service from Seabra — same series, same factory in Cabreúva/SP.
Yes. Since FB Bombas manufactures entirely in Cabreúva/SP, replacement parts for the FBE, FBEI, FBCN and FBOT series are available directly from the factory, with short lead times for scheduled stops and priority service for emergencies. This significantly reduces total cost of ownership.
Service to Seabra is handled directly by the FB Bombas team at the Cabreúva/SP factory — no intermediaries, no resellers. That means direct contact with application engineering for sizing, technical quotes returned within 24h and original spare parts supplied without distributor markup. On-site technical visits to Seabra are planned based on project criticality.
Yes. FB Bombas is a Brazilian manufacturer accredited in FINAME (BNDES Special Industrial Financing Agency), which qualifies equipment supplied to Seabra for BNDES Finame financing lines (Industrial Working Capital, Modernization, Capital Goods) with preferential conditions for national industry. The commercial team provides the product FINAME code on the technical proposal for inclusion in the customer financial plan.
Yes. FB Bombas application engineering supports ISO 10816 vibration analysis (velocity RMS in mm/s) for diagnosing misalignment, imbalance, bearing defects and cavitation on pumps installed in Seabra. The service includes baseline capture at startup, spectral comparison during PM campaigns, and intervention recommendations (re-balancing, bearing replacement, laser alignment) before vibration exceeds the standard’s zone D.
For critical parts (mechanical seal, impeller, shaft, wear ring, bearings) during a plant shutdown in Seabra, FB Bombas runs an emergency flow: pre-invoicing, priority dispatch and alternative modal (express road or air transport depending on distance and criticality). Typical lead time varies by region, with a window negotiable case by case. For customers with an installed base and scheduled PM, part of the stock can be kept on consignment at the plant.
Yes. The FAT (Factory Acceptance Test) is executed on the factory bench in Cabreúva/SP, with hydraulic test, characteristic-curve measurement (Q × H), hydraulic efficiency, NPSHr and ISO 10816 vibration — witnessed by customer inspection when specified. For projects in Seabra, the SAT (Site Acceptance Test) is supported by application engineering during commissioning, with startup checklist, laser alignment and baseline vibration-signature capture.
Mechanical seal configuration is defined by engineering according to the fluid, temperature and operating pressure. Options include single seals, double seals (tandem or back-to-back), cartridge seals and packing glands for specific applications. For hazardous fluids, double seals with barrier are recommended.
Yes. Correct sizing is the main lever for energy efficiency — an oversized or undersized pump wastes energy. FB Bombas engineering calculates the optimal operating point considering the actual process conditions in Seabra, optimizing the flow/pressure/power ratio.
Shorter delivery times (no import dependency), direct technical support from FB engineering, replacement parts with in-house manufacturing, prices in local currency (no exchange rate exposure) and on-site service for projects in Seabra and surrounding areas. FB Bombas has been manufacturing in Brazil since 1944.
Yes. FB Bombas offers technical training for operations and maintenance teams in Seabra, with modules on: sizing and reading the characteristic curve, identifying cavitation through NPSH, mechanical-seal troubleshooting, laser alignment, ISO 10816 vibration analysis and PM (preventive maintenance) practice with bearing and wear-ring replacement. Training can be delivered at the customer plant or at the Cabreúva/SP factory, in person or hybrid.
