The 41000 series Jefa rudder bearings are the first type of roller bearings that were produced by Jefa marine. In the past 20 years more than 10.000 of these bearings have been produced. This bearing is typically suitable for GRP or wood core cruising yachts where a light revolving and backlash free rudder system is required that will not be stretched to the limits as on racing yachts.
|
|
These rubber lined bearings are specially designed for water lubricated sterntubes and rudder stocks. The nitrile rubber bearing material gives the bearing a high resistance to abrasion and wear whilst providing effective noise and vibration insulation.
The bearing's outer shell is manufactured from either corrosion resistant naval brass or non-metallic material. The non-metallic shell has the advantage of being lighter and it prevents electrolytic corrosion. Non-standard sizes and flange bearings are available on request.

DIA-LOG is an electronic control system with a double adjustment ring, developed entirely in digital technology. The inertia unit identifies and processes vessel rolling. The signals are instantly processed by the electronic regulator, which directs each fin to the required position at a certain speed for generating a suitable righting effect.
DIA-LOG's flexibility can be seen in any conditions (including rough sea and anchored vessels). Moreover, easy diagnostics are a routine feature due to an archiving system of all data.

The new improved performance, and unique oil balanced design make these helm units the ultimate for yacht steering where feed-back to the wheel is required. The efficiency of the design means that even small loads can be sensed at the wheel, giving the “feel” of mechanical steering with all the safety and advantages of hydraulics.
As a result of years of intense research and development, HyDrive Hydraulic steering offers huge advantages for sailing boats :-
- Instant movement - No slack!
- Simple installation with hydraulic tubing that can be run literally anywhere on the boat - no more straight line cables, pulleys, or sheaves!
- Fully compatible with hydraulic autopilots
- Totally Manual - no power required
- Ease of fitting to wind-vanes
- Safety and reliability that only hydraulics can offer. (You trust hydraulics to stop you safely in your car)
- Cost savings on expensive quadrants (Overall costs on a complete hydraulic system will most likely work out considerably less that an equivalent cable system of equal quality and power)

A very popular cylinder type for outboards is the HyDrive tube-mount or side-mount 210T (balanced) and 210TSE (unbalanced). It can handle the same horsepower as the powerful 210BH Bullhorn cylinder, but it is simpler and cheaper to install. The only restriction to fitting them is the side-clearance requirements in the engine well. Made of chromed brass, bronze and stainless steel, there are two versions available, - the 210T which is a balanced cylinder, and the unbalanced 210TSE which has slightly higher turns one way than the other. It's advantage is that it requires less clearance for installation. They can also be fitted directly to splashwell brackets to replace any cable steering. It's really that simple.

216FM “Front Mount” Cylinder
The HyDrive Model 216FM cylinder is designed to fit all brands of V4 and V6 Outboards*. It offers the advantage of rigid mounting directly in front of the motor. While it does require more well-space than the “Bullhorn” type cylinder, the hydraulic hoses remain stationary.
The marine brass cylinder is nickel coated and has special non-conductive and wear resistant rod-guides, offering maximum protection against electrolysis and other damage. It is capable of handling single or twin V4 and V6 outboards without torque feedback (single motors to 235HP or twin up to a total of 400HP- counter rotating). Combined with the Admiral series 101 helm, it offers the ultimate in boat handling for you and your family.

210BH “Bullhorn” Cylinder
There are several different ways to steer outboard motors. You need to consider the room available and the design of the boat’s engine well. The most popular of our outboard steering cylinders is our Model 210BH Bullhorn unit. This is the most powerful and durable cylinder of its type on the market. It is capable of handling single or multiple engine installations up to 1200HP combined*
What sets these HyDrive cylinders apart from the competition is the materials used to build them. While other brands use anodised or painted aluminum alloy cylinders, HyDrive uses only chromed brass, bronze and stainless steel - built for the toughest marine environment.
The 210BH cylinder mounts very simply to the tilt-tube of the outboard motor and fits neatly under the front of the motor cowling. It is compact in design and requires only a small amount of clearance (615mm). It requires considerably less space than some competitors “front mount” design cylinders.
