Marine Bearings & Seals  (25)

Tides Marine TYPE-C Rudder Ports are for use in new construction or retrofits. They may be used with any hull material. They can be mounted into a built-up pad inside FRP or Wooden hulls or installed into a matching flanged tube in FRP or metal hulls. Unlike the typical custom fabricated assembly with separate bearings and packing, the TYPE-C combines both sealing and bearing functions in a cost effective housing. It is an ABS-approved configuration and offers a substantial bearing surface-to-stock diameter ratio. The units consist of a single piece plastic housing with a nitrile lip seal. The TYPE-C is 100% watertight, requires no maintenance and eliminates chatter and vibration resulting in quieter, smoother performance. It also eliminates the problems of metal-on-metal abrasion, electrolysis and corrosion

The Thordon TG100 is a mechanical seal designed specifically for 86mm (3.375") to 305mm (12") shaft vessels operating in either clean or abrasive-laden waters including workboats, harbor tugs, offshore supply vessels, yachts, ferries, fishing trawlers and self-propelled dredgers.

Tides Marine replacement nitrile lip seals are specifically designed for each sealing system (propeller shafts / rudder stocks) produced by Tides Marine. The outer shell is made of an Aramid fiber composite which is integrally molded to a rubber hinge with a nitrile edge. A 316-stainless steel garter spring is incorporated to distribute loads evenly over the propeller shaft or rudder stock.

The Minimum Distance required from the end of the stern tube to the coupling is 7 1/4 Inches. Water from Raw Water Feed to SureSeal that delivers a minimum of 1 Gallon per Minute at Engine Idle Speed and increases as you throttle up, at a minimum of 2 psi. Features: ABS and Lloyds Type Approval. Minimal scheduled maintenance Replaceable Lip Seal while in the water (with Spare Seal Carrier Installed). No Winterization is necessary but winterization fluids will NOT harm the SureSeal. Easy to Install. HOUSING Made from fiber-reinforced composite material, the housing is strong, durable and compact. The SureSeal® is dimensionally unaffected by temperature and will not absorb water.  BEARING The integral PTFE bearing extends the operating life of the SureSeal® under normal operating conditions. HOSE Connecting the SureSeal® to the vessel is now easier with an “articulating hose”. This hose design automatically positions the SureSeal® the correct operating distance from the stern tube. No measurements are required – installation is simplified. The articulating hose reduces side loads to the SureSeal® when shaft misalignment occurs. As a result, lip seal and bearing life are extended. LIP SEAL REPLACEMENT The SureSeal® design incorporates a removable front cap which improves access to the lip seal. A worn lip seal can be replaced, even while the vessel is in the water, restoring the "100% watertight" characteristic of the SureSeal®. INJECTION FITTING The SureSeal water injection fitting is made from 316 stainless steel. Depending on the propeller shaft size, it comes in 3/8 or 1/2 inch sizes. A plastic cap is provided with each fitting so that if the injection hose has to be removed, the cap will restrict water flow into the vessel.
