The shaft bracket helps to keep the propeller shaft securely aligned. It must be designed in a way that makes the propeller run with a proper supply of water. It also has to be machined in a way that secure that the bearing within the bracket are be correctly positioned. A faulty bracket may lead to severe water supply problems, especially for boats capable of high speeds. This may result in cavitation, reduced speed and noise.
We design and produce or obtain both cast standard bronze brackets and specially welded brackets made from different steel qualities or aluminum. Bracket parts are made on demand for jointing and adaption by the boat builder.
