MARINE STERNTUBES
Depending on the hull material or its construction method, we can provide sterntubes to be welded in place, fixed between bulkheads by clamp nuts or to be laminated in place. Also, for vessels that are produced to the standards of all well-established classification societies (e.g. Lloyds, BV, DNV and ABS), AAM-Equipment can supply sterntubes with the casting procedure or by boring. AAM-Equipment sterntubes are made of only the best quality materials (steel, stainless steel, brass, GRP and aluminium), to ensure the sterntubes meet our high quality standards. we are able to anticipate on the following aspects:
– Propeller calculation.
– Shaft inclination.
– Desired lubricant: water, grease or oil.
– Hull material and desired mounting system.
– Calculation of shaft diameter and taper size.
– Shaft sealing.
– Coupling.
