Techemer Stern Shaft Bearing Key Benefits
Extended Service Life
Proven to last longer than most water-lubricated non-metallic bearings, including Thordon SXL, under identical conditions.
100% Water-Lubricated Operation
No grease, no oil. Performs exceptionally in continuous or intermittent water lubrication.
Dry-Start Capability
Safely supports dry starts — a critical feature for harsh working vessels or emergency scenarios.
Superior Wear Resistance
Techemer TSTN's embedded microcrystals and pressure-resistant particles dramatically reduce wear and shaft damage.
Environmentally Compliant
Meets the increasing global demand for green, oil-free propulsion systems.
