Bronze Bearing Housing
The bearing assembly uses a bronze housing with an internal threaded connection for the vessel's stern tube.
The housing incorporates the inner neoprene bearing bush and supports the flexible sealing arrangement.
Water-Lubricated Neoprene Bearing
The neoprene inner bearing bush is designed to operate with water lubrication. It provides a bearing surface for the rotating propeller shaft within the bronze housing assembly.
The technical drawing identifies a water connection on the bearing assembly.
Flexible Sealing Arrangement
The bearing assembly incorporates a rubber cuff and packing cord sealing. These components form the flexible sealing arrangement associated with the bronze inner bearing.
The combination of the flexible rubber section and integrated bearing provides a connection between the shaft sealing components and the stern tube housing.
Selection and Compatibility
Select the correct Allpa bronze flexible inner bearing according to the propeller shaft diameter and stern tube size:
- 463125: Ø25 mm shaft, Ø40 mm stern tube.
- 463130: Ø30 mm shaft, Ø45 mm stern tube.
- 463135: Ø35 mm shaft, Ø50 mm stern tube.
- 463140: Ø40 mm shaft, Ø55 mm stern tube.
- 463145: Ø45 mm shaft, Ø60 mm stern tube.
- 463150: Ø50 mm shaft, Ø65 mm stern tube.
Before ordering, verify the propeller shaft diameter, stern tube connection dimensions, internal threaded connection and installation space against the specified F, H, I and N dimensions.
