Troubleshooting & FAQ
How do I know if this packing box fits my shaft?
This seal is designed specifically for 50mm propeller shafts that fit into a 70mm stern tube sleeve. Always measure your shaft and sleeve diameters before ordering to ensure compatibility.
What are the signs of a failing shaft seal?
Common signs include excessive dripping when the shaft is stationary, a steady stream of water while the shaft is turning, an unexplained increase in bilge water, or visible cracks and deterioration of the rubber housing.
How often does this seal need maintenance?
The recommended maintenance interval is to apply grease every 200 operating hours or at least once per year, whichever comes first, to keep it lubricated and functioning correctly.
Is any water leakage normal with this seal?
A properly installed and maintained seal should be virtually dripless. While a very occasional drop of water might occur, a constant drip or stream indicates a problem that needs attention.
What is the maximum distance allowed between shaft bearings?
The maximum supported distance between shaft bearings when using this seal is 1500 mm. Exceeding this can lead to excessive shaft vibration and premature seal failure.
Can I install this myself?
While installation is possible for those with strong mechanical skills, professional installation is recommended. Proper fit, alignment, and air-bleeding are critical for safety and performance.
