In Forquilha, Ceará, FB Bombas offers FBEI, FBCN series sized for local industry. In-house factory in Cabreúva-SP (2291 km), direct technical service from engineering and 96h to 7 days logistics lead time for critical parts. Standards: API 676 and ASME B73.1; API 610 on engineered-to-order projects.
FB Bombas is a Brazilian manufacturer of industrial pumps serving Forquilha, Ceará, with the FBE, FBCN, FBOT and FBEI series applied to the local industry sector that dominates the region. Direct factory service from Cabreúva-SP, with application engineering for technical sizing and qualification under CRCC Petrobras / API 610 / ASME B73.1 per project specification. Forquilha sits 182 km from the industrial district cluster centered in Maracanau, a proximity that usually means shared suppliers and aligned maintenance standards. The city sits within the IBGE mesoregion Noroeste Cearense, a regional grouping of municipalities with similar economic and logistics profiles — useful for comparative analysis and technical-visit routing. The óleos industriais and água industrial profile observed in Forquilha maps to a precise set of FB series: high viscosity → FBE/FBEI; water and low viscosity → FBCN; heat transfer → FBOT; fire protection → FBFS. Road access runs via BR-116 (via BA/PI), with branches through BR-116, BR-222 and BR-020 — a corridor that sets delivery times for rotating equipment and the logistics of technical service. FB Bombas maintains in Forquilha the technical portfolio of CRCC Petrobras + API 676 + ASME B73.1 (API 610 on engineered-to-order projects) — a regulatory base that spans refining, petrochemicals, mining, sanitation, pulp and paper, sugar-ethanol and steel. Service to Forquilha is coordinated from the Cabreúva-SP factory, route BR-116 (via BA/PI) (2291 km), with a technical team for selection, commissioning and replacement support.
Technical fit in Forquilha points to FBEI and FBCN as the series suitable for typical local operations — a baseline recommendation; the final specification depends on the specific process parameters. single cartridge mechanical seal (Plan 11/13) for general service, upgradable to dual when the fluid requires secondary containment is the initial sealing configuration for Forquilha; secondary-plan adjustments and dual cartridges are considered based on fluid criticality and environmental requirement. The transferência geral and utilidades set accounts for a large share of industrial demand in Forquilha; FB Bombas keeps documented history of analogous applications for sizing benchmarks. Lead time for critical parts to Forquilha is typically 96h to 7 days — a function of distance (2291 km) and the available road modal.
The demand profile in Forquilha reflects medium density — regular and predictable opportunity pipeline. Typical seasonality of the distrito-industrial cluster (variable seasonality depending on plant mix — individualized planning) directly impacts supply scheduling and PMs in Forquilha. By IBGE's breakdown, Forquilha adds up a GDP of R$ 346 million (2023) with industrial share of 18.8% in value added (2021) — a market where FB serves from process circuits to water and HVAC infrastructure. Forquilha shows cases like series FBEI for transferência geral and series FBCN for utilidades — a package FB Bombas addresses with real-curve sizing, material recommendation and dimensioned seal configuration. In Forquilha, near a distrito-industrial cluster, applications such as diverse applications — specialty chemicals, hydraulic oils, purified water and thermal oils make up the operational agenda — each backed by technical references in the FBE/FBCN/FBOT catalogues. In Forquilha, óleos industriais and água industrial form the typical fluid set — guiding both series selection (gear, centrifugal, thermal oil) and constructive detail (closed/open/semi-open impeller).
Cabreúva-SP to Forquilha: 2291 km via BR-116 (via BA/PI), a consolidated corridor with carriers qualified by FB Bombas for heavy-equipment cargo. Federal highways BR-116, BR-222 and BR-020 make up the access network to Forquilha, offering routing flexibility for equipment cargo. Before shipment to Forquilha, each piece of equipment undergoes dimensional inspection, hydraulic testing and document verification.
FB engineers serve Forquilha with a formal technical proposal: curve-based sizing, materials, NPSH, field conditions and lead time. First engineering response within 1 business day; complete proposal within 3-5 business days.
Talk to engineeringFor over 82 years, we have manufactured industrial pumps in Cabreúva-SP. From north to south, we serve the country's main industrial hubs with gear (FBE/FBEI) and centrifugal (FBCN/FBOT) pumps — engineered, machined and assembled in our own manufacturing facility.
Our engineering team sizes each pump for the customer's actual application, with bench testing before shipping. This technical rigor — combined with direct support from our team — is what has sustained the trust of groups like Petrobras, Vale and CSN for generations.

Brazilian sectors for which FB Bombas sizes equipment — complete technical guides per application.
FB Bombas serves Forquilha and neighboring municipalities with the same technical team — optimized visits and supply in joint campaigns.
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.
Yes. FB Bombas serves the entire metropolitan region and microregions neighboring Forquilha with the same technical support and logistics structure. This regional reach allows serving industrial plants distributed across multiple cities in a coordinated way.
Yes. The process starts with FB Bombas' application engineering, which studies the installed pump's specifications — flow, pressure, viscosity, temperature — and indicates the dimensional or functional technical equivalence within our series. In Forquilha, many clients have already completed this swap and gained in lead time, cost and local support.
FB Bombas manufactures four major lines: FBE (external gear) for viscous fluids, FBEI (internal gear) for lubricating fluids, FBCN (normalized centrifugal) for water and low-viscosity fluids, and FBOT (specific centrifugal) for thermal oil circuits. We also serve fire protection systems in compliance with NFPA and NBR 16704.
FB Bombas' trajectory as an industrial pump manufacturer began in 1944 and adds up to over 82 years of continuous experience. Engineering, manufacturing and testing operate under one roof at the Cabreúva/SP factory — a guarantee of total quality control on every unit that reaches Forquilha and the rest of Brazil.
Four pillars: a current Petrobras CRCC registration for Oil & Gas; API 676 (positive displacement) on the FBE series; ASME B73.1 (process centrifugals) on the FBCN series; and NFPA 20 / NBR 16704 compliance for stationary fire pumps.
There is no single configuration — engineering selects the mechanical seal based on the fluid, temperature and operating pressure. The range includes single seals, double seals in tandem or back-to-back arrangement, cartridge seals and packing glands in specific applications. When the fluid is hazardous, the recommendation is a double seal with barrier.
There are three channels: WhatsApp +55 11 97287-4837, email comercial@fbbombas.com.br and the form on our website. Technical questions get priority response within the same business day — the reply comes directly from application engineering.
Service to Forquilha is handled directly by the FB Bombas team at the Cabreúva/SP factory. That means direct contact with application engineering for sizing, a complete technical quotation within 3-5 business days and original spare parts supplied at factory-direct pricing. On-site technical visits to Forquilha are planned based on project criticality.
It offers both. The FAT (Factory Acceptance Test) takes place on the Cabreúva/SP bench and covers hydraulic testing, characteristic-curve measurement (Q × H), hydraulic efficiency, NPSHr and ISO 10816 vibration; when the customer specifies, inspection witnesses the tests. In the SAT (Site Acceptance Test) of Forquilha projects, application engineering supports commissioning with startup checklist, laser alignment and capture of the baseline vibration signature.
Fill out the form and our technical team will contact you to size the ideal pump — gear (FBE/FBEI) or centrifugal (FBCN/FBOT).
