Rope cutter for boat propeller shaft
SHAFT STRIPPER
Ambassador Marine
The Stripper is made up of several parts that are assembled in halves and bolted onto the propeller shaft, avoiding having to remove the propeller for initial installation or any future maintenance. The Stripper comes with full colour installation instructions and can be installed by the boat owner in under an hour, avoiding costly boat yard labour fees.
The Stripper package consists of a rotary cutter that clamps onto the propeller shaft and has the same number of blades as your propeller. The rotary cutter also acts as the main structure of the Stripper with the fixed cutter, bearings and clamp ring all mounting onto it.
For a scissor action cutter to work there has to be a stationary blade, the fixed cutter. This is mounted onto the rotary cutter between two nylon bearings and is held in place with a clamp ring. Its stopped from rotating by loosely engaging with a striker plate mounted onto the P bracket, this allows forward and aft movement of the propeller shaft without changing the distance between the fixed and rotary cutter blades.
