Vetus VRC25 Stainless Steel Rope Cutter for Propeller Shaft Ø25 mm
The Vetus VRC25 Rope Cutter is engineered to safeguard your vessel’s propulsion system by preventing ropes, fishing lines, and other debris from fouling the propeller or shaft. Mounted directly behind the propeller, it ensures uninterrupted operation and protects the cutlass bearing from damage caused by entangled materials.
Constructed from high-grade AISI 316L stainless steel, the VRC25 offers outstanding resistance to corrosion and wear in both freshwater and saltwater environments. Its two-part circular design allows quick installation around the shaft without removing the propeller, ensuring easy maintenance and long-term reliability.
Key Advantages
- Effective Protection: Prevents ropes and debris from jamming between the propeller and cutlass bearing.
- High-Quality Material: Made from AISI 316L stainless steel for maximum corrosion resistance.
- Easy Installation: Two-piece construction fits around the shaft without propeller removal.
- Low Maintenance: Durable and long-lasting with minimal upkeep.
- Compact Design: Optimized dimensions ensure smooth hydrodynamic flow and minimal drag.
