Direct answer for industrial projects — recommended series, standards compliance and logistics.
In Gravatal, Santa Catarina, FB Bombas offers FBEI, FBCN series sized for local industry. In-house factory in Cabreúva-SP (589 km), direct technical service from engineering and 48-72h logistics lead time for critical parts. Standards: API 676 and ASME B73.1; API 610 on engineered-to-order projects.
Based in Cabreúva-SP at 589 km via BR-116 Rodovia Régis Bittencourt, FB Bombas delivers to Gravatal industrial pumps manufactured in-house since 1944 plus continuous technical support. The óleos industriais and água industrial profile observed in Gravatal maps to a precise set of FB series: high viscosity → FBE/FBEI; water and low viscosity → FBCN; heat transfer → FBOT; fire protection → FBFS. Membership in the Sul Catarinense mesoregion (IBGE) places Gravatal in a regional economic mesh — a factor FB Bombas uses to optimize multi-city maintenance campaigns and consolidate freight across customers along the same axis. FB Bombas maintains in Gravatal 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. Gravatal is served by the BR-116 Rodovia Régis Bittencourt axis and also by highways BR-116, BR-101 and BR-282 for heavy-cargo movement — relevant for delivery of mounted skids and large pump-and-motor sets. The port cluster of Itajai is 162 km from Gravatal, generating economic spillover and correlated technical demand — common in pumping projects involving both cities. Gravatal, Santa Catarina is territory where FB Bombas operates as a Brazilian industrial-pump manufacturer with 82 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 qualification, API 676 compliance and ASME B73.1 normalization (API 610 engineered-to-order projects) — basis for retrofit in plants with global manufacturers already installed.
For Gravatal (589 km from Cabreúva-SP), the critical-parts logistics cycle runs in 48-72h — a workable window for regular PM campaigns with controlled risk of extended downtime. Gravatal, near a portuario cluster, deals with bunker fuel oil (BPF), seawater for cooling and liquid bulk movement — a technical agenda well known to FB application engineering. In Gravatal, transferência geral and utilidades form the typical-use portfolio — guiding series selection, sealing configuration and internal coating according to fluid abrasiveness or aggressiveness. For the technical profile observed in Gravatal, FB Bombas application engineering recommends FBEI and FBCN as a starting point for sizing, subject to refinement per Q×H curve, available NPSH and actual fluid temperature.
By IBGE's breakdown, Gravatal adds up a GDP of R$ 457 million (2023) with industrial share of 28.1% in value added (2021) — a market where FB serves from process circuits to water and HVAC infrastructure. Gravatal: by affinity to the portuario cluster, continuous flow with seasonality tied to agricultural harvests (bulk) and fuel supply — a variable that enters commercial planning. Gravatal: medium density — regular and predictable opportunity pipeline — a variable influencing commercial strategy and service logistics. bunker (BPF fuel oil), marine cooling water and liquid-bulk discharge: this is the typical application set around the portuario cluster in which Gravatal sits. For Gravatal, series FBEI for transferência geral and series FBCN for utilidades — initial reference for technical discussion with application engineering. Gravatal: óleos industriais and água industrial. Each fluid defines a distinct set of pump requirements — flow, available NPSH, sealing strategy.
The main logistics axis between Cabreúva-SP and Gravatal is BR-116 Rodovia Régis Bittencourt, totaling 589 km — a route that sets the default delivery time for finished equipment. Typical transit time to Gravatal: 24-48h via federal highways — the window used in FB Bombas' standard commercial commitment. Dispatch from the Cabreúva-SP factory to Gravatal occurs after bench hydraulic testing and Data Book verification — mandatory steps in FB's quality control.
FB engineers serve Gravatal 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 Gravatal and neighboring municipalities with the same technical team — optimized visits and supply in joint campaigns.
Yes — Gravatal is part of FB Bombas’ direct service area. Supply, engineering support and spare parts ship from the factory in Cabreúva/SP; sizing is done at no cost and, when the project is critical, the team evaluates an on-site technical visit.
Yes. Operations and maintenance teams in Gravatal count on FB Bombas technical training, structured in modules: sizing and characteristic-curve reading, identifying cavitation through NPSH, mechanical-seal troubleshooting, laser alignment, ISO 10816 vibration analysis and PM (preventive maintenance) practice with bearing and wear-ring replacement. Classes can happen at the customer plant or at the factory in Cabreúva/SP, in-person or hybrid format.
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.
Since 1944 — over 82 years of continuous experience manufacturing industrial pumps. In Cabreúva/SP, the factory brings engineering, manufacturing and testing together under one roof, which assures total quality control on each unit shipped to Gravatal and all across Brazil.
The advantages are concrete: faster delivery because nothing depends on imports; FB engineering providing direct technical support; spares secured by in-house parts manufacturing; local-currency pricing, free from exchange rate exposure; and physical presence on projects in Gravatal and surrounding areas. All from a company manufacturing in Brazil since 1944.
Yes. For stationary fire protection systems, FB Bombas produces pumps compliant with NFPA (National Fire Protection Association) and with ABNT's NBR 16704 — covering building and industrial projects that demand these certifications.
It does. FB Bombas' retrofit service for existing installations encompasses updated seals, replaced worn components, adjustment to new fluids and improved hydraulic performance. To evaluate each case, the reference is the technical report on the current installation.
FB pumps are supplied with a warranty against manufacturing defects according to the terms detailed in the commercial proposal. The warranty assumes installation, operation and maintenance within the parameters specified in the manual and sizing performed by engineering. Consult our technical team for specific details of your project in Gravatal.
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.
They do. In the FBE and FBCN lines, wear-affected components sit in easily accessible positions, so conventional tools suffice for disassembly and inspection. Add detailed technical manuals and factory-direct availability of replacement parts — and maintenance becomes an uncomplicated routine.
Fill out the form and our technical team will contact you to size the ideal pump — gear (FBE/FBEI) or centrifugal (FBCN/FBOT).
