propeller shaft bearings and lubrication systems
Eco Bearings supplies several types of bearing designs and materials for stern shaft applications.
Composite bearing material is a good allround bearing that offers low friction and good wear resistance. Elastomeric bearing materials are more ductile and therefore very resistant to wear in environments with high concentrations of solids in the water, such as shallow water, rivers and lakes. The bearings may be supplied as standalone items for installation into the stern tube or strut, or preinstalled into carriers. Stern shaft bearing system: Eco bearings has developed a complete bearing lubrication and monitoring system that complies with DNVGL requirements for a TMON open loop notation. The system is comprised of:
The system is highly configurable and can be customized for most situations. |
