Perfect solution for a truly sealed propeller shaft.
I was completely fed up with the hassle of my constantly leaking propeller shaft seal with packing cord. This seemed like the perfect solution, and so far, I am very pleased with it. The installation was a bit trickier than I had anticipated, but that is mainly because the PSS seal on my boat ended up in a hard-to-reach spot, right between two floor hatches. As a result, the nipple could not be positioned straight up, and it was difficult to hold the stainless steel sealing ring in place during adjustment before it could be secured. The PSS seal has now been installed for a few weeks, and the first hundred nautical miles have been sailed. Not a drop of water is escaping anymore.

PSS shaft seal
After installation, the shaft seal is tight. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to drive it yet because some parts are still missing, so I can't comment on its tightness while driving.

Mechanical seal
Quality product when compared with the old seal that lasted 15 years , I can expect reliability and peace of mind . The only problem was the ss ring running face was same diameter as the shaft so had to machine it . More of an issue from.my side . Deff buy again

Hello, The product is of very good quality. It just lacks, inside, a hydrolube ring which would allow an easier alignment of the propeller shaft ...

With modern materials, hopefully less work is required during operation.
Goods have now been installed, but not yet tested. Goods are a perfect fit. Since it is not known how hot the hose connection can get (below 12 knots speed), i.e. pure ventilation, a temperature specification would be helpful for the selection of the hose. It should also be mentioned that during assembly, for. B. Space for inserting a wedge of about 40mm is required. Otherwise, I hope to sail smoothly.
