STUFFY BOX EVO Rubber Propeller Shaft Seal with Water Lubrication Ø25–50 mm
The STUFFY BOX EVO Rubber Propeller Shaft Seal is designed for sealing metric propeller shafts in marine propulsion installations. It replaces traditional braided gland packing with a compact rubber sealing system featuring connections for water lubrication and grease maintenance.
The EVO range includes six configurations for propeller shaft diameters from 25 to 50 mm. Each version combines a defined shaft diameter, external mounting diameter and overall length.
EVO Version – Water and Grease Lubrication Connections
The EVO version features two separate connections:
- Water Lubrication Connection: A brass hose connector for connection to the water lubrication system.
- Greasing Port: A separate opening fitted with a brass plug for periodic application of grease.
This arrangement distinguishes the EVO version from the standard STUFFY BOX Normal seal, which uses a grease hole without a hose connection.
Alternative to Traditional Gland Packing
The STUFFY BOX EVO rubber seal is designed to replace conventional braided gland packing in propeller shaft assemblies.
Its compact construction allows installation in shaft arrangements where available space is limited.
Rubber Sealing Body
The sealing body is manufactured from rubber and is designed for installation on metric propeller shafts.
The rubber body incorporates the connections required for water lubrication and grease application.
Installation Requirements
The supplied product specifications indicate a minimum support length of 38 mm for installation.
The external diameter and overall seal length depend on the selected shaft size. These dimensions should be checked against the existing stern tube and available mounting space.
Maintenance Recommendations
The manufacturer provides the following maintenance recommendations:
- Grease Application: Every 200 operating hours.
- Seal Replacement: After 4 years or 500 operating hours.
