What Hayward Tyler Group does

Hayward Tyler Group designs, manufactures, and services fluid-filled electric motors and pumps for performance-critical industrial applications. Its product portfolio spans six main categories: nuclear pumps (axial mixed flow, end suction, vertical turbine, double suction, and reciprocating plunger), submersible pumps and motors (subsea motors rated to 3,000 m depth and up to 8,000 hp), sealless pumps (canned motor pumps and wet stator motor pumps with zero-leakage integrated motor-pump architecture), specialty high-temperature pumps for molten salt and liquid sodium service, positive displacement pumps (including the Varley gear pump line), and condition monitoring systems (S200 and P100 series using Motor Current Signature Analysis). The underlying technology is centered on sealless canned motor and wet-wound stator designs that eliminate mechanical seals by containing the pump and motor within a shared pressure boundary, enabling zero-leakage operation in hazardous, high-pressure, and high-temperature environments.

Hayward Tyler is organized as a division of Avingtrans PLC, a London-listed precision engineering group, and operates five facilities in Vermont (USA), Luton (England), East Kilbride (Scotland), Kunshan (China), and New Delhi (India). Primary end markets are nuclear power, oil and gas (especially offshore/subsea), and power generation; secondary verticals include chemical processing, refrigeration, hydrogen production, desalination, and defense naval applications. The company derives revenue from custom-engineered equipment sales (project-based, multi-year contracts) and a global aftermarket service business offering spare parts, repairs, upgrades, field service, training, and 24/7 technical support for installed fleets.

The firm holds a leading market position in nuclear canned motor pumps alongside NIKKISO, is the first company to achieve the ASME III, Division 5 Class A & B 'N' Certificate, and is qualified under ASME NPT, ASME NS, NQA-1, Fit For Nuclear, ATEX, DNV, NORSOK, API 610/541/685, JOSCAR, Achilles FPAL, ISO 9001, and ISO 14001. Distribution is direct enterprise sales supported by technical webinars, case studies, and white papers; the company has grown via the 2023 acquisition of Slack & Parr assets, the merger with Energy Steel, a partnership with KEPCO KPS for Korean nuclear services, and a supply partnership with Ruhrpumpen for nuclear reciprocating plunger pumps.
