Allpa Bronze Propeller Shaft Strut with Straight Mounting Flange and Neoprene Bearing for Ø25–60 mm Shafts
The Allpa Bronze Propeller Shaft Strut with Straight Mounting Flange is a marine shaft support component manufactured from bronze and fitted with a neoprene bearing bush. It is designed to support the rotating propeller shaft using a rigid support arm and a straight mounting plate.
The standard strut configuration features a straight mounting flange and a longitudinal bearing inclination of 15°. The mounting geometry can also be manufactured to specified dimensions for orders of multiple units.
Seven configurations are available for 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50 and 60 mm propeller shafts. Dimensions and allowable inclination ranges vary according to shaft diameter.

Bronze Shaft Strut Construction
The shaft strut consists of a bronze support arm, a straight mounting flange and a cylindrical bearing housing with a neoprene bearing bush.
The mounting flange provides a connection to the vessel's supporting structure, while the bearing housing supports the propeller shaft.
Neoprene Shaft Bearing
The strut includes a neoprene bearing bush fitted inside the bronze bearing housing.
The bearing bush is selected according to the propeller shaft diameter. Seven configurations are available for shafts from 25 to 60 mm.
Mounting Flange and Standard Angle
The standard configuration is supplied with a straight mounting flange and a 15° longitudinal bearing inclination.
The installation geometry is determined by the shaft inclination and the mounting arrangement of the vessel.
Custom Installation Geometry
For orders of multiple units, the shaft strut can be manufactured according to specified installation dimensions.
The variable dimensions are:
- H: Height of the support strut.
- α: Longitudinal inclination of the bearing housing.
- β: Transverse inclination of the support strut.
For Ø25–50 mm shaft configurations, the longitudinal inclination range is 9–16° and the transverse inclination range is 0–22°.
For the Ø60 mm configuration, the longitudinal inclination range is 6–15° and the transverse inclination range is 0–20°.
Selection and Compatibility
Select the correct Allpa bronze shaft strut according to the propeller shaft diameter and required mounting geometry.
- 468125: Ø25 mm shaft, maximum support height 180 mm.
- 468130: Ø30 mm shaft, maximum support height 200 mm.
- 468135: Ø35 mm shaft, maximum support height 230 mm.
- 468140: Ø40 mm shaft, maximum support height 260 mm.
