VETUS Axle Rubber Bearing With Phenol Resin 35 mm
Ensure the smooth, quiet, and reliable operation of your boat´s propulsion system with the innovative VETUS Axle Rubber Bearing. Designed for the modern mariner, this 35 mm bearing represents a significant advancement over traditional bronze or brass components, offering unparalleled durability and ease of maintenance for your motor´s shaft line.
This advanced cutlass bearing with a phenolic resin outer bushing is significantly lighter in weight, cannot corrode, and may be replaced very easily, making it the ideal choice for aluminium boats. One of the standout benefits of this VETUS bearing is its complete immunity to corrosion. Unlike conventional metal bearings that are highly susceptible to galvanic corrosion, especially when installed in aluminum or steel hulls, the VETUS phenolic bearing eliminates this destructive electrochemical reaction entirely. This crucial feature extends the life of both the bearing and your stern tube, saving you from costly, complex repairs and providing total peace of mind in both demanding saltwater and freshwater environments.
Engineered for optimal performance, the inner bearing is made from a durable, water-lubricated rubber that effectively dampens vibrations and reduces operational noise for a more pleasant experience on the water. The precision-molded grooves (flutes) along the inner surface are expertly designed to ensure a constant and generous flow of cooling and lubricating water. This intelligent design not only promotes a near-frictionless rotation of the 35 mm propeller shaft but also actively flushes away sand, silt, and other abrasive particles that can cause premature wear on the shaft and bearing.
Installation and replacement are streamlined thanks to the lightweight and dimensionally stable phenolic resin casing. Whether you are performing a new installation on a boat build or retrofitting an existing vessel, the process is simpler and faster compared to heavy, press-fit metal bearings that often require specialized tools. Choose the VETUS 35 mm Axle Rubber Bearing for a maintenance-friendly, corrosion-proof, and quiet solution that protects your investment. It is the superior choice for boat owners who demand reliability, longevity, and peak performance from their motor and propulsion equipment.
