Product Description

Silent and Reliable Construction

Technical design benefits

• Precision machining and assembly secures a long lifetime and durability.
• No additional center lock. This is automatic in the standard hydraulic system – very safe due to the hydraulics having extreme safety limits – actually stronger than the shaft.
• Dual cylinders provide a balanced load, unlike single-cylinder solutions and less bearing load, allowing for a more compact shaft bearing assembly.
• Purpose-designed dual shaft sealing – superior to standard Simmer Ring lip seals.
• Internal hydraulic connections on actuators are pre-fitted. The installer only fits non-moving hoses/pipes – Easier and safer.
• No complex adjustments are required to set up a controller with lots of factors. These are set automatically on the first sea-trial of the boat.
• Bearing the lifetime lubricated SKF high-load bearings transferring the cylinder forces to the fins, have a built-in tightening system. This means that when you on most brands often need to change all bearings to remove a small noise from minimal bearing wear, you can instead tighten them again and keep going—saving both cost and hassle to get the bearings changed.
• Vector fins are easily and quickly installed and removed from the outside for best convenience, such as transport or other haul-out situations.
• Defined shaft-shear point in cDefined shaft-shear point in case of the fins accidentally hitting something.
• All wet parts are made of stainless steel.
