Application and Use
Cutlass bearings are essential for supporting and aligning the propeller shaft in marine propulsion systems. Their water-lubricated design lowers friction, reduces vibration, and increases durability under continuous load and exposure to seawater.
Brass vs. Phenolic Bearings
- Brass bearings: Suitable for standard marine environments, offering strength, corrosion resistance, and effective handling of dynamic loads.
- Phenolic bearings: Preferable for aluminum stern tubes or in applications where galvanic corrosion risks must be minimized.
