Technical Specifications
Parameter Value Shaft Diameter 25 mm Outer Diameter (Shell Size) 1 1/2" Length 100 mm Shell Material Phenolic resin Lining Material Polyurethane-rubber Lubrication Water-lubricated
Application and Use
Cutlass bearings provide essential support and alignment for marine propeller shafts. Their water-lubricated rubber linings reduce friction, absorb vibration, and ensure long-lasting operational reliability in diverse marine environments.
Phenolic vs. Brass Bearings
- Phenolic bearings: Recommended for aluminum stern tubes and installations where galvanic corrosion must be avoided. Lightweight, non-metallic, and resistant to marine corrosion.
- Brass bearings: Standard in many marine applications due to their strength, durability, and corrosion resistance, but not ideal where dissimilar-metal corrosion is a concern.
