The 20 seconds you invest while these animations load will save you untold thousands of dollars in dry docking, bearing and prop shaft replacement costs as long as you own a vessel!

Our polymer sleeve rotates with your prop shaft. The outer area of the polymer sleeve contacts the stationary outer bearing sleeve. The result is zero prop shaft wear, minimal vibration, better performance, longer bearing life and huge money savings for you.
Conventional bearings actually wear faster as they age. Worse yet, they also wear out prop shafts faster due to larger areas of friction. Face it, you've tolerated poor performance and value for long enough; step up to the new revolution in bearings.
"We have had no problems on the Edgartown Ferry's On Time III, which operates more than 5,000 hours a year and crosses the harbor more than 150 times a day year-round.

Your bearing is performing so far without wear or installation problems (about 10,000 hours). I've tried brass and stainless steel sleeves with no success.

Yours looked like the practical, off-the-shelf solution, and that has proven to be the case."
