Today

KBB marine standard

KBB turbochargers run on modern medium- and high-speed engines; Wattmare keeps every HPR and HPA unit running with genuine, OEM-equivalent and Alang-reconditioned parts.

Who is KBB

A Swiss marine-power
major, KBB lineage.

KBB (Kompressorenbau Bautzen) of Germany makes the HPR and HPA high-pressure-ratio marine exhaust-gas turbochargers, fitted to medium- and high-speed marine and genset engines across the world fleet.

The complete guide

KBB turbocharger spare parts, explained

Wattmare is a specialist KBB turbocharger spare parts supplier serving India, the UAE, Singapore and the wider global fleet. From our base in Bhavnagar — beside the Alang ship-recycling yard — we supply genuine, OEM-equivalent and reconditioned spares for every generation of KBB two-stroke marine turbocharger, dispatched worldwide in 24–48 hours.

The KBB lineage

KBB turbochargers are designed and built by Kompressorenbau Bautzen of Germany, a turbomachinery specialist since 1948. The HPR and HPA series power modern medium- and high-speed marine and genset engines worldwide. We supply spares across all of them.

HPR versus HPA versus ST series

The single most important question on any KBB order is whether the engine is an HPR, an HPA or an ST series. The KBB HPR is classic — lube-oil pump, fuel cam, shaft seal and mechanical bearing gear. The HPA / HPA and the KBB ST series are electronically controlled, replacing the rotor with a high-efficiency supply unit, sealing rings, sealing-air parts and hydraulically actuated bearings. Cartridges, casings, compressor wheels and bearings are broadly common by frame size, but injection and actuation parts are entirely different — always give us your exact HPR / HPA / ST series designation.

Four-stroke: the KBB medium-speed range

Alongside the two-strokes, KBB’s medium-speed four-stroke engines power gensets and auxiliary sets. The range — KBB HPR, HPA and ST turbochargers, plus the V-versions — is among the most installed auxiliary engines afloat. While this page focuses on the marine turbochargers, we also supply rotor shafts, compressor wheels, cartridges, valves, nozzle rings, lube-oil pumps and bearings for these four-strokes.

The Alang advantage for legacy HPR parts

Bhavnagar sits beside Alang, where hundreds of vessels are dismantled every year — including ships still running ageing KBB HPR two-stroke engines. That gives Wattmare direct access to genuine, low-hour parts that are slow or costly to source from distributors, at a fraction of new-part cost and lead time. For hard-to-find HPR lube-oil pumps, shaft seals, cartridges or rotating assembly, this is the fastest source in the world. Browse our reconditioned marine spare parts range, the wider turbocharger spare parts category, or sister brands like MAN engine spares and Mitsubishi UEC.

How to order and what to expect

Send your KBB engine make and model with a photo or part number on WhatsApp, or use the quote form. We confirm availability and price — usually within the hour — and dispatch in-stock items within 24 hours. Typical air-freight transit is 12–18 hours to the UAE, 16–24 to Singapore, 20–26 to Greece and Turkey, and 28–36 to Northern Europe.

FAQ

KBB parts,
answered.

Do you supply KBB HPR turbocharger cartridges?

Yes — turbocharger cartridges are one of our strongest KBB lines. We carry genuine and reconditioned cartridges for the HPR and HPA series, plus the rest of the HPR range (HPR3000 to HPR6000), honed to OEM tolerance with measurement reports. Most legacy HPR cartridges are recovered and reconditioned beside Alang.

What is the difference between KBB HPR, HPA and ST series parts?

The KBB HPR is a classic (mechanical) two-stroke — lube-oil pump, fuel cam and mechanical bearing actuation. The HPA / HPA and the KBB ST series are electronically controlled, replacing the rotor with a high-efficiency supply unit, sealing rings, sealing-air parts and hydraulically actuated bearings. Cartridges, compressor wheels and bearings are broadly similar by frame size, but the injection and bearing actuation parts are completely different — always quote your exact HPR, HPA or ST series model.

Which KBB engine models do you cover?

We cover the full two-stroke range — the current KBB ST series (ST, ST, ST, ST, ST, ST, ST), the high-efficiency HPA / HPA (the HPA and ST range) and the legacy KBB HPR (HPR3000 up to HPR6000, including the HPA and ST variants) — every KBB HPR, HPA and ST frame size. We also supply the four-stroke medium-speed KBB HPR, HPA and ST turbochargers.

Are reconditioned KBB parts class-approved?

Reconditioned parts ship with inspection reports, dimensional measurements and photographs, and are accepted by class societies (Lloyd’s Register, DNV, ABS, BV, ClassNK, RINA) on survey. Genuine KBB parts carry full material and test certificates.

How fast can you deliver KBB parts to Dubai?

In-stock items dispatch within 24 hours from Bhavnagar. Typical air-freight transit to the UAE (Dubai, Jebel Ali, Fujairah) is 12–18 hours. Singapore is 16–24 hours, Greece and Turkey 20–26, and Northern Europe 28–36.

Can you supply KBB nozzle rings and lube-oil pumps?

Yes — nozzle rings, injector nozzles, high-pressure lube-oil pumps, plungers and barrels for KBB HPR engines, plus high-efficiency supply units, sealing rings, sealing-air parts and injection equipment for HPA / HPA and ST series engines, are stocked and bench-tested before dispatch.

What is the difference between genuine, OEM-equivalent and reconditioned parts?

Genuine parts come from the original maker (KBB / KBB) with full certificates. OEM-equivalent are quality aftermarket parts at 30–50% less. Reconditioned are low-hour parts recovered from Alang, inspected and certified to OEM tolerance, at up to 70% less with a 30-day warranty.

Do you supply obsolete KBB HPR parts no longer stocked by distributors?

Yes — obsolete KBB HPR parts are our specialty. Beside Alang we recover low-hour lube-oil pumps, shaft seals, cartridges and wheels and rotating assembly from HPR-powered vessels being dismantled, then inspect and certify them. For the HPR and HPA range and HPR engines this is often the fastest source in the world.

Do you carry KBB HPA, ST and HPR turbocharger spares?

Yes — rotor, cartridge and bearing spares for the four-stroke medium-speed KBB HPR, HPA and ST turbochargers, including rotor shafts, compressor wheels, cartridges, nozzle rings and bearings, fuel equipment and bearings for gensets and auxiliary engines.

How do I get a price for a KBB spare part?

Send your engine model and a photo or part number on WhatsApp (+91 96647 18068), or use the quote form. We confirm availability and price, usually within the hour — whether you need genuine, OEM-equivalent, used or reconditioned parts, or a complete service kit.

Where do you ship KBB parts and how are they packed?

We ship from Alang/Bhavnagar to the UAE, Dubai, Singapore, Greece, Turkey and every major port worldwide in 24–48 hours. Parts are export-packed with VCI wrapping, wooden crates and palletisation, with photos shared before dispatch and full export documentation included.

Can you supply complete KBB service kits?

Yes — bearing-service, cartridge-exchange and full-service kits assembled to your exact HPR, HPA / HPA or ST series model, with cartridges, sealing rings, nozzle rings, bearing assemblies, shaft-seal rings, gaskets, O-rings and fasteners included.
