Technical Specifications
Parameter Value Shaft Diameter 65 mm Outer Diameter (Shell Size) 3 3/8" Length 260 mm Shell Material Brass Lining Material Polyurethane-rubber Lubrication Water-lubricated
Application and Use
Cutlass bearings are essential components for supporting and aligning marine propeller shafts. Their water-lubricated rubber linings minimize friction, absorb vibration, and increase durability during continuous operation in harsh marine environments.
Brass vs. Phenolic Bearings
- Brass bearings: Best suited for standard marine applications due to their durability, corrosion resistance, and ability to handle dynamic loads.
- Phenolic bearings: Ideal for aluminum stern tubes or applications where galvanic corrosion risks must be avoided.
