115mm Brass Shaft Bearing (5.5 Inch External)

115mm Brass Shaft Bearing (External 5.5 Inches)

Upgrade your vessel's functionality with our premium water-lubricated shaft bearings. Designed with an exact metric inner diameter and a precise imperial outer diameter, these bearings guarantee exceptional performance on the water.

Crafted from robust brass and complemented by a resilient internal rubber component featuring innovative axial channels, these bearings offer a perfect fusion of materials that enhances lubrication capabilities. The rubber's elasticity provides remarkable shock absorption and vibration reduction, ensuring a smoother sailing experience.

Revolutionary Aqualube Engineering

The Aqualube bearing design is a game changer in marine performance. Unlike standard bearings, Aqualube models are formulated to generate a hydrodynamic water wedge between the shaft and the bearing, even at reduced shaft speeds.

Water serves as an ideal lubricant in marine conditions due to its easy availability, incompressibility, superior cooling features, and low friction coefficient. Longitudinal grooves facilitate water entry, forming a thin lubrication film that circulates between the propeller shaft and the bearing face, protecting the shaft from direct contact with the bearing.

Sturdy with Simple Installation

Our naval-grade brass bearing boasts precisely machined and polished edges, ensuring an easy installation process. The nitrile rubber, designed to resist oil and chemicals, is securely bonded to the brass casing. Thinner casing options are also available for smaller vessels requiring brackets.

Sleeve bearings can be easily installed with light press-fit methods and are held in position with tapered screws.
