Vetus BOW4512DI IP65 Ignition-Protected Bow Thruster 45 kgf, 12V, Ø125 mm Tunnel
The Vetus BOW4512DI bow thruster provides 45 kgf thrust with exceptional noise reduction features, making it one of the quietest thrusters in its class. It is protected by a watertight, ignition-safe motor housing, preventing explosive vapors from contacting internal components and offering strong corrosion resistance. Designed for vessels between 7.5 and 11.5 meters, it supports confident manoeuvring in confined marinas and during docking.
This unit uses a single synthetic propeller to minimize flow disturbance and weight, while spiral gears and a flexible coupling help reduce noise and vibration. Installation is simplified thanks to the compact Ø125 mm tunnel size and inclusive mounting components.
